Divorce from union

This is a short word vomit that gives voice to my fear of not being able to connect and feeling numb. This piece was written to face these feelings.

I am divorced,

and all alone,

from union,

from

Union of souls

Union of minds

Union of hearts

Union of bodies

Union of selves

Union of halves

Union of dreams

Union of thoughts

Union of smiles

Union of tears

Union of pain

Union of joy.

I am divorced,

and all alone,

from union,

with

me

my heart

my mind

my pain

my joy

my emotions.

I cannot feel now,

I worry I'll never feel;

I cannot connect,

with me nor the world around me.

This divorce, I hate,

this divorce, that numbs,

his divorce, I want to mend

with me and the world around me,

this divorce from union,

that leaves me alone,

disconnected,

deserted,

passive,

apathetic,

.

.

.

still.

Please mend this divorce,

this broken union,

so I may find a peace,

a sense of oneness,

get rid of this fear of the alone,

and help find comfort in my skin,

find comfort in a union

with me and the world around me.

i enjoyed the read and the way you set it up. As someone who is going through a separation with no chance of reconciliation, i felt it and the pain. Well done, although I'm so sorry for the circumstances

I'm happy to hear you enjoyed it. It helped to process my feelings during a difficult time and I hope will do the same for others experiencing separation in whatever capacity and circumstances. I hope things get better for you eventually and Thank you for reading and reviewing the poem, I do really appreciate it.
