It begins
early on
possibly
before we are born
forced into the world
it begins
with the feeding
of expectations
the brutalness
of reality
and it continues
with the shattering of dreams
and the destruction of hope
Unkept promises
lies
broken eyes
simple deceit
mere betrayal
cruelty
~ the unmistakable pain
of a broken heart
Tell me...
Can you hear it?

This is beautiful. I love your writing. Its so achingly real. Keep writing and healing. x
I understand only too well, my friend
Yes I knew it well before and after birth-- the knowledge of a feeling of rejection and desertion and contorted hurt- and yet a fine line moved across to love and back confusing me - until my mind burst and my heart was filled with bitter harm-- eventually it healed - and I can breath - the price of six decades has seeded the beginnings of some peace and knowing how to understand and love!
I know your broken heart because My heart was broken too. My mind was sundered and my essence was appalled. We know these things and hold a secret as we know through breaking down the possibilities and shapes and structures of reality. We see further and know more how to connect with those who are lost because of the damage and insight of our histories. Blessings on your work and mission!
I can feel the inner pain squeezing itself through the words. A painful truth, beautifully displayed in language.
