heal the pain

[onlywritinghelps]

so much to say, so much hurt to heal, so much pain to talk away

yet there is no-one there to talk

so many tears to cry, so many comforting hugs required

yet there are no shoulders to cry on or arms to find comfort in

so much healing time is needed

yet there is no time to heal

where do you turn in times like these?

your family? they've got their own suffering to endure and lives to live

your friends? they've got their own lives to live and suffering to endure

there's no-one.

you cry to yourself when no-one is around, longing for comfort that isn't forthcoming

you never thought you would have to deal with this kind of pain alone

you always thought that when something on this scale happened people would reach out for each other

reach out for you

they didn't.

you have to cope somehow, you have to cope alone.

[Jabberwocky]

time is ever upon us forcing us to deal with the gravity of consciousness. I feel for your loss and i offer my condolences.

 

[onlywritinghelps]

thank you

 

[ScorpioSunshine]

((hugs)) so sorry for your loss.

 

[Keepit Chill]

if writing does help, i encourage you to keep doing it and you are good at it
im sorry for your loss
i know you feel incredibly alone but this is always a good place to get some thoughts across and express your feelings to take some of the weight off your shoulders

^Agreed. Keep writing, it will help you heal your wounds. It gets easier with time.

Often the only person that one can reach out to is themselves, and those who would read what they wrote. Thank you for letting us see inside of you.

Thank you everyone for your kind words. There are good days and bad days...the day I wrote the poem was not great but putting how I felt into words really did help as did your kind comments - thanks for helping to make a sad girl feel a bit better.

 

[up all night]

I hope things are a little better than they were a month ago. In any case, (), that's what Words is here for.

^Thanks - strangely I haven't been able to write anything lately. The feeling seems to take over when i'm feeling really down but i sometimes find it hard to write when I'm doing okay.

I love reading everyone elses work - thanks for your words all!
