Share your pain they say
Share the things that are troubling your mind
Trouble shared is trouble halved
But at times I rather keep it to myself and suffer in silence
I would rather crawl away
Cry in solitude and let all the thoughts that are poisoning my mind wash away with tears
And when I feel it is fit, I will crawl out of my lair and share what I can share
Cause you know what is even more paining
You can’t take away my pain
You can’t help me carry the weight that is on my shoulders
After I have shared you will lovingly try to comfort me with uplifting words and maybe even a hug
But what happens after that?
You will move on with your life
I will still be here
The pain will still be there
The sorrow will still be there
The tears will still come
Cause at the end of the day I am on my own in this struggle
This journey to healing, self love and acceptance
Cause after all is said and done
Who and what remains
Is me with my body mind and soul
Truth of the matter is sadly….you will never really know how I truly feel
