²Promise (i nearly broke)
sorry
i know
i promised
but sometimes
situations grow horns
become demons
i can
no longer
fight
tired of me
of life
of everything
with thoughts
i feel tears
welling
pools
i wish
would drown me
end the suffering
ashamed
i am weak
a gap
nothimg
but
dead space

Nearly is not final. Strength lies in the promise that you tell only to yourself, not others. Keep fighting. By writing, you are doing so. I will hold you in my thoughts.
There's no shame in needing help to reorganize intense dark thoughts that press so very hard upon that place where hopelessness can overwhelm..
A forever gentle reminder that you are valuable, talented, caring, and wholly wanted in this world.
I hear you, dear friend.... Always
Healthy and helpful strength via mind body and soul, no matter where or how it's found and applied, is of importance, imo....
I am beyond elated you accessed and felt it (borrowed or not) when it was needed, so.

as an admittedly HUMAN being - complete only because of the ability to FEEL
nearing or even not meeting the promise, goal or aspiration
in way means we failed.
You and me struggle with the grays and shades and shadiness of life and we will often feel as though we failed or broke a promise or lost a friendship.
THIS IS NOT ON us ---------we try to survive if not LIVE normally in an abnormal world.
Brother, am always here for You.

I understand this well. I won't give trite aphorisms, but a sincere virtual hug and nod of understanding. I'm sorry for the times you are forced to go to that place of disappointment and darkness. I hope you use it as fuel to heal and gather kindred souls around you.

never be ashamed for how You feel or are feeling or may feel tomorrow!
It's what i tell my (ex) Stepson every time we chat when He needs someone to chat with and feels He can't chat with anyone other than someone who may understand.
We had a wee chat a couple of nights ago and i gave Him the link to Your spill, here.
i wanted Him to know that He is never alone and there are lots and lots and lots of people (us) who care and want His best.
Thank You for sharing and posting this spill ------
