Tonight, she refuses to be strong
refuses to be brave
All night long she goes over
every time her heart has missed a beat
every time it has beat in unison with another
every time it has bled
She replays every promise
slow motions every disappointment
She compels her soul to wallow
tells her heart to grieve
Her eyes need no telling
thier bountiful spring cool her face
Tonight she unleashes all her feelings
embraces her sorrow
enjoys her pain
The pain that is her past, present and fairy future.
I find that allowing yourself to cry helps you to heal. Purges your system.
ReplyDeletei cry too but i never have to "compel" the sorrow. it just comes naturally. maybe i"m not strong ... lol
ReplyDeleteMakes me think, makes me sad too..
ReplyDeleteThis piece shows truth of many women... getting soaked in sorrow and disappointment that seem a perpetual part of them,
crying them off.
Nice one!!!
