It's getting harder...

It's getting harder...

A Poem by Gwenhyvar Green



It's getting harder to remember

what I was like 

before I was damaged;

before you tore me open

and forced your darkness in.

I have tried to get it out

by opening my skin

but there is always more

left deep within.

Good Gwen but dark and disturbing. Once there hàs been a violation of any form return to normality is so hard. It is brave to share personal stories like this but I'm sure there will be many will connect.
Well done for sharing!
Take care,

Am I assuming correctly that this poem talks about cutting? The hurt, so deep, causing self-inflicted wounds, which never really compensate for the deeper wounds, which no one can see.

Sobering, yet touching poetry.

It's true, as comforting it may be in the moment, it is not any kind of solution. Thank you so much .. read more

Sometimes just having a pulse can make you sad. This describes the subject so well.

Good writing.
