Detainee

I have become my own detainee
Words drowning me each day
Restained down in this self conflict
the wind blowing pieces of me away

I've been avoiding this self conflict for a while now
To afraid to face my own thoughts that break me more
Maybe it's the fear of realizing "I don't know how"
So many regrets that I bore

To afraid to face the mirror
The reflection,cruelest critic in reality
And the broken pieces become clearer
I know I'm guilty

Acceptance or acknowledgement isn't the issue
It's more the forgiveness part
Self forgiveness isn't something I do
There isn't a option to re-start

So here I stay detained...within my own mind

Author's Note

I haven't listen in awhile so yes kinda rusty

I think many people can relate to this, we can be some of our toughest critics

Thank you 😊

If you can't forgive yourself you'll never be able to forgive others.

[micky]

That is true but also easier said then done...

[Rajat malik]

I know it's hard but it isn't impossible. Right?
You have to forgive yourself because what others do isn't your fault, you can only control yourself, not others.
Calm down. Sit for 10 min. everyday. Close your eyes. Let go off everything. Imagine yourself achieving the things which you desire the most. Always remember that result comes from desires. Above all, believe in yourself.

detained with yourself aacha laga. Saadi zindagi bhi kuch aisi hi hai. Even my life is somewhat like you.

Oh, I rather like this one. Deep and meaningful. We are our own prisoners in mind and body...

[micky]

Thank you :)

[Re-Pete]

hmm. to be held captive by yourself, a prisoner of our own mind. yes, those awful regrets. this is a very deep observation. we all have a bit of that in ourselves. must love and forgive to be set free.

[micky]

Thank you ...appreciate it

Perhaps our own souls are the darkest, deepest prisons, for if they detain us there is nothing that can free us. What powerfully stirring thoughts, and what a warning to us all to keep a key to our freedom always ready. xo
