Searching

The feelings inside are so gumbled and complex, where they begin and where they end I have no knoweldge.  From calm and quite to frantic and earpiercing in mear seconds, the instability stunning even to myself.

Looking back to times when things where simple, not remembering how it was to walk through the day without the hurt, anger, sadness or disappointments.

Listening to their harsh words and opinions, strugging not to believe them, falling into the darkness of sorrow and dispair threw weakness and shame.

Seeing the looks of satisfaction grow on their faces as you slide into your dark and empty hole within yourself, knowing you are stronger than this, but sliding fast as the light fades fast above you.

Daring to dream of a time and place for youself.... only knowing that it will be hard to travel the road there, knowing if you fail once again you will not dare make the journey again.
