I'm fine
"I'm just fine",I say as I hide behind the broken glass.
My house has been shattered.
Of corse this smile is real.
I'm happy,really! Can't you tell?
Don't worry about me;I'm OK! Please stop asking.
Do you think all of your questions are helping me now?
I find them to be more harassing!!!
I can't take it anymore;please shut up!!!
Why can't you just leave me alone?
Wait, please don't go. I'm losing my mind!
I'm down on my knees,and I can't stop crying!
I'm covered in the shards of my broken life.
Please don't go now. If you do I will die!
I need you to listen;this smile hides my pain!
I have taken the glass,and am going for my vein!
It's to late now;i'm falling away.
The pain is all gone now.
I'm sorry you couldn't stay.

Deja Vu: With the exception of the last four lines, I've had this conversation! It's a hard spot to be in, harder I'm sure to express from the outside looking in. Good job!

Thank you. It was hard to press the button to publish this one,although it makes it worth it to know that someone got something out of reading it.

Thank you mynumber1. It's easy to write what you know even when it brings you pain.

This is too familiar to me:\ I was stuck in that situation for 4 years. Hardest 4 years I ever had.
But I did not go for the vein or glass tho.... I used searing hot knifes, but nuff said. Keep on going strong, and never give up cause there's always hope.

I appreciate you sharing your experience JustTryingToBe! It is for sure not an easy thing to put such a deep place in yourself. That which does not kill us makes us stronger. I hope you have moved forward and keep on keeping on. Life is meant to be lived and sometimes we have to pull ourselves up, but hopefully at the end we can say we tried.

Very strong use of verse here Angie ... a departure from some off your other published pieces.....
Good to see you embrace both sides to your clearly ... complex character ... if I may be so bold ...
Keep pushing & pressing that publish button ...
I think you'll be surprised how many will feel this side to your persona !
Blessings & keep on expressing !

Thank you so much BigVirge! I love it when people really get how this is a journey through our lives. When you sit down and write, it's the real you speaking and channeling your life onto paper. I hope I can continue to pull out more of myself. I just moved so I havent been able to be on here much lately. I hope that when things settle down for me I can let it all out!
