How
How can I keep living when I feel like I don’t belong?
How can I survive when I can no longer be strong?
How can I have hope when it’s been taken away?
How can I fight when I don’t wish to stay?
How can I smile when I just need to cry?
So many questions, so many whys.
I’m no longer at home in myself anymore,
Every day I wake up lost I’ll never find who I was before,
I am a stranger in my own mind, lost with no direction,
Trying to find a part of my self with no navigation,
Impossible right?
Fills me with fright.
This...

Grief
Grief
One minute your here, the next your gone,
Heaven gained another Angel, a very special one,
And although you are no longer here,
The memories stay forever here,
I’ll miss your face,
Your steady pace,
Your calming ways,
The happy days,
Your cheery smile,
I could do with that once in a while,
You were always happy,
Never snappy,
Your hugs were the best,
You held so tight and squeezed my chest,
You had so much love to give,
You had so much life left to live,
You brightened up the room with your funny ways, ...

Stuck
Stuck
I feel so alone, it’s a scary place to be,
Stuck in darkness, light is not to be seen,
So much hurt coming from deep within,
My will to live has got very thin,
Questioning my existence and why I’m here,
Living a life full of anxiety and fear,
Distance from reality, distance from myself,
I don’t even know myself,
I look in the mirror that’s not me,
I don’t know who it is I see,
Where did she go?
How did this happen?
I once had hope, now my future is blackened,
Stuck in darkness,
Nothingness,
No hope, ...
I feel so alone, it’s a scary place to be,
Stuck in darkness, light is not to be seen,

Distance from reality, distance from myself,
I don’t even know myself,
I look in the mirror that’s not me,
I don’t know who it is I see,
Where did she go?
How did this happen?
I once had hope, now my future is blackened,
Stuck in darkness,
Nothingness,

Memory
Memory
I don't know how to feel,
The flashbacks, nightmares and terrors are so real, Replaying in my mind so vividly,
Re happening so intensely,
Not knowing what's real and what's not,
Is is a flashback?
Or am I being shot?
Racing heart, sweaty palms,
Everything around me is causing me harm.
Hyper alert of everything around,
Peace and calm can't be found,
Scared to fall asleep,
The flashbacks make me weep,
Although I'm so very tired,
My brain is wired,
Every crash reminds me,
Of the trauma that broke...

Reflection
Reflection
As this chapter ends, we reflect on the year,
The challenges we faced, that filled us with fear,
The memories we made that made us smile,
The times that made living worth while,
We have encountered many challenges, but we got through,
We have stuck together, tough like glue,
We've made friends, but we lost some too,
I often wonder how we got through,
So much sadness, so much fear,
So much has happened in one small year,
The people we lost, aren't forever gone,
They are watching us and helping us stay strong,
They are...

Identity
Identity
How can I feel like I belong when I've lost my identity, How can I be happy when I feel pain in great density, How can I love myself when I don't even recognise who I am,
How can I make decisions when my head is crammed, Crammed full of bad thoughts, voices and pain, Crammed full of negativity, self doubt and shame,
How can I smile when I just want to cry,
How can I live my life when I just want to die,
How can Move when I feel completely numb,
How can I be happy with myself when this is what I've become.
A monster, a robot, a burden to all...
