A Broken Frame

A Broken Frame

A Poem by therisa

Please

I beg your giveness

Which I am

About to write

As it deals with

A very personal

Matter.


One

That is normally

Kept a secret

By me.


Which

I am ashamed

Even admitting to

That I have

Serious trust issues.


Next

To opening up

About my childhood

Experiences.


For

I want to share

Open up

But am filled

With fear

To do so.


In

Letting them

Get so far

Into my past

Before the door

Slams close.


Yet

Opening up is

Badly needed

If I want

To heal myself.


But

Past experiences

Continues to rears

It's ugly head.


Acting

As a reminder

How I was rewarded

In the past

By opening up.

 


Sigh.
