So I weep!
Survive the sorrow
Pouring from the soul
Tears forcing out
Streams of pain
Long controlled
By voices in the mindAfraid to let go.
Anguish rooted
Subconscious ties
Buried deep
Years pass
New wounds adding
Scabs over exist scarsHold it in, never cry.
Something snaps
Floodgates open
Emotions rushing
Uncontrolled
Gasping for breath
Holding on to lifeThe end so clear.
How deep do the waters flow?
Filled with wreckage of the past
A river clogged with debris
Polluting its own being
Unable to release
A cleansingRite of purification.
To the headwaters
Trace the source
A fresh beginning
Flowing downward
Calm and storm
Drought and downpourAdd their mark.
In the current
Go with the flow
Or fight the stream
Submerged and drowning
Stoic to the world
Either directionPulls like doom.
Current moves while
Rocks nor logs can
Barricade the progress
Ebb and flow
Erode the path
Smoothing down the edgesAll is one.
