Stop
The pain
The shame, never ending, overwhelming shame
Feeling worthless
A failure
Wrong
A broken shell with rotting insides
Self doubt, self hate, self harm
Ugly, bitter, twisted
Bad
Rotten to the core
A pain, a burden, a risk
A waste
Wearing a mask to hide the truth
Wanting to please
Wanting to trust
Wanting to love
Not knowing how
The never ending turn and return
No escape
No reprieve
No hope
Stop
Hi Mussymel,
A powerful poem. You explained a lot within it. :hug: to you, if that's ok.
Hope :)
Mussymel,
This poem reminds me of all the gaslighting my abusers did. It is powerful and sad to me.
