I feel most people will connect this poem to that of the loss of others. That’s ok. To me, it is the absolute loss of words, the gut wrenching, mind tossing pain for when you lose yourself. Life always felt wasted in my hands, but when I lost myself I could no longer feel. Nothing was hard, nothing was easy. I wasn’t even there. It was my body existing without me.
Loss of self is awful. This poem is very heartfelt and appreciated. It makes me wonder who I am and it’s a harsh reality to what I’ve become. Great reflective write. H🌷
