My body can’t bare the weight
World closing in and I suffocate
Bitterness and anger meet here
Blackness fills, until I disappear
All I need is one more breathe
Just give it to me so I can live
Captured, you hold me bound
Used up, cast on the ground
You refuse to hear all my outcries
Emotionless, believe your own lies
I needed you and you turn away
Unable to make you want to stay
Trust what you want about a soul
But mine is under your control
You keep me locked away, lonely
Tell me I will always be your only
Lies, all lies to keep me enslaved
When I just wanted to be saved
That is pain you see in my eyes
I refuse to wear your disguise
Bitterness you are just so cruel
Stubborn as a big damn mule
Is this all just a foolish game?
To keep me stuck in your pain

Thanks so much and for commenting.
So very true.
Yes- thank you for reading and commenting.
Very passionate and heart-touching!
Thank you so much my friend. It is from experience which flows freely.
The cadence of bitterness is audible in this write. This piece speaks and feelings flow from the depth of melancholic soul.
It is very true Amitav. I feel like I’ve over come just to wind up back at square one. Or someone does something and then it is like an old wound reopened- even if by a different person. Bitterness is so raw an emotion and so hard to get away from.
The journey through a labyrinth where the heart is guided through with voices which seems trusting but leads to the same place. As if the vortex of emotions were not enough, there is always life’s tides which forces the soul to deal with upsurge of emotions.
Such deep words and so lovely- much truth in these. I’m down hearted and an emotional mess 😢
You have opened your heart and light will shine through. Feelings pure will start flowing to heal thy world. Soul’s pleas never go unheard.
❤️❤️
I can totally relate. As of now,I felt very depressed and no one even notice it. I can feel a lot of bitterness in my heart but I’m trying my very best to overcome this emotions. I tried writing down some bible verses to help me. Thank you for this.
It is a hard journey but sounds like you are using wise outlets to heal. Well wishes 🙂
Thank you for gracing us with your words. They remind me of the long, painful process of healing from trauma, and the absolute necessity of spiraling down in order to spiral up–one small step each day. God bless you!
