feeling it

This is a poem that I wrote 8 years ago, and it amazes me that the words still apply while facing into the challenges of today. I thought I would share:


 Deep down inside my mind I hold the pain I sometimes can't hide
 my body weak from endless emotion,
 draining me of hope, forgetting all connection

 My heart like branches kissed by winters chill,
 anger creeps in slowly and threatens to kill
 My mind becomes heavy, this burden again too hard to carry.

I begin to sink beneath its load, too many things I am trying to hold
trying to purge through the hurting and pain
burns down my cheeks like acid rain.

From the depths of sorrow and endless torment,
the past comes back, no longer dormant.
