Unholy Nights

Unholy Nights

A Poem by Jenni Bailey

Last night, I cried heavily

And, it wasn’t so heavenly

I could feel my tear’s weight

My tears were filled with self-hate

My face said, ‘’I need a break’’

My body said, ‘’you need to stay awake’’

It’s my f*****g past and trauma

I used the darkness as my mama

It is and thank you
You final comment means more than it reads.. perhaps? Do you have someone in your life that will give you a hug and say 'I understand?' Your words are so raw and intense, you need share if you can, Jenni. Take care, my friend, keep safe.

I believe ANYONE can become broken when facing specific circumstances where they feel insignificant, dependent upon the will of others, betrayed beyond recovery, and even trapped within or by situations that were never in their control or even thoughts. And being "broken" seldom gets fixed, it just gets ...harder to deal with.

no apologies - real understands real.
That was dark and filled with anguish and emptiness. I could feel this poem and it was very heavy. Well crafted.
