My heart has been ripped asunder
Every day I’m slowly eaten ever more by angst
And still I gather every metaphor to hide it under
Finally I realize that I simply need to come out and say
I’m Broken
I’m tired, I’m stressed, I’m sick without explanation
It grows more apparent with every twitch and stutter
Physical symptoms and self degradation
I try so hard to relax and still I shudder.
Breath in
Breath out
Wretch once
Gag twice

Relatable, for sure.
You really expressed yourself well, on this one.
Great rhyme scheme, & message.

Thanks man, here’s hoping!
I love the way this poem is written, so sad yet so real , thank you for sharing
Thank you for reading!
I’m working on a piece that explores this concept as well, but you’ve made my piece pale in comparison 🙂 This is engrossing, my friend. Thank you for being a continuing source of inspiration!
You flatter me Cyrus! I highly doubt your poem “pales in comparison” and I very much look forward to reading it!
