Bottom
I know what rock bottom feels like
struggling to reach the top just to
breathe,
getting pushed back down again
because he's talking
out loud,
it hurts to be the punching bag
all the time,
I'm sinking,
the dark cold emptiness covers me
I close my eyes and welcome the
relief,
Warmth from my tears streak down
my face reminding me I do have
feelings
struggling to reach the top just to
breathe,
getting pushed back down again
because he's talking
out loud,
it hurts to be the punching bag
all the time,
I'm sinking,
the dark cold emptiness covers me
I close my eyes and welcome the
relief,
Warmth from my tears streak down
my face reminding me I do have
feelings

Unfortunately, I feel your pain. I hate you feel that way but its nice to know someone feels how I feel so they understand. Its beautiful though. Nice work.

The poem matches the picture - a beaten down look of naked powerlessness.
