Persistent Storm

As always I post my thoughts and troubles as open and honestly as I can.

Most days I sit here alone
Peace and quiet in this empty house
Thunder and lighting racing through my mind
My heart aches for the ones I love
I don’t show enough of it
The one I need the most is the one I’ve betrayed
I became the one thing I swore I wouldn’t
It was never worth it
The whiskey has been calling my name lately
I remember when it was a daily habit
It was the only thing that allowed me to break down
I hope one day I’ll find true inner peace
I hope one day I can fully love myself
Getting these thoughts out on paper helps I suppose
I’m not very talented at writing or rhyming
I’m just trying to be real, and relatable to those reading

I think you succeeded. While our journey is not the same, I think that we all relate in one way or another. Life is hard; we are harder on ourselves. It's a struggle that we all know, some worse than others. Our demons pursue us relentlessly.
