There is this little piece
Deep inside
That sits and waits,
Broken.
My whole life
Too busy pretending
I’m okay
To notice
It was there
The entire time.
Sitting and waiting,
Exploding.
Into tears,
Raging.
Most days
I feel it,
I know it’s there,
I can swerve out of the way,
But it always finds me
Because it never leaves
And it’s been so long
I don’t know
How
Anymore.
I sit and wait,
Broken.

You put into words feelings I think so many of us can relate to, yet few speak about. I cannot get it to leave

Posted the last before I’d finished: I cannot get the feeling to completely leave either, but I shove it in the back seat to stop it trying to drive.

Thank you so very much for your kind words. I hear you, and I really like your analogy. These feelings, my back seat passengers, got so loud, “are we there yet, are we there yet…”. I had to search for a way to let them be free, because even though I felt I was controlling them by shutting them away…it eventually became clear they were controlling me. Feelings are a a funny thing when you allow them, I’m still learning to observe them. I do think there is beauty, even in the darkest of feelings, I hope you can find it. ❤️

I believe ‘there is beauty, even in the darkest of feelings’ too; acknowleding them, owning to them, and knowing they have a purpose and a message. When I talk of not letting more painful emotions into the driving seat it’s probably my way of expressing a similar journey you describe of making sure they’re not controlling, but recognising their presence and seeking their release. I think words and art can provide roadsigns. 🙂
