Drowning

Blackening thoughts and sickening memories,

Will I ever get to be who I was meant to be?

Vivid flashbacks and ever-present scents,

Will I ever have a relationship that even remotely resembles normal?

Encompassing depressions and overwhelming sensations,

Will I ever get over this trauma?

Pilling class work and increasing pills,

Is normal just too hard a task for me?

Drowning silently and hardening hearts,

Will I ever let someone in again?

self doubt and depression are abundant in this ...if it is just a write, it is a very creative one...if it is more than that you are experiencing what we all do at one or another time in life...self respect is the way out. love yourself and keep writing your thoughts in the form of prose, it can be quite liberating and rewarding emotionally. this write is honest and heartfelt and quite well written...you have a gift...use it

I rarely write about things that I haven't experienced myself. So, in a way, this is me. Thank you for the advice, I've found that it's sometimes easier said than done. :)
