Me and my mind

by Joseph R Hanna   Nov 29, 2007


How can something be so loud but so quiet.
my mind is racing with thought
my body is wanting to stop
my mind is undulating with still pictures
like memories of my pain memories of nothing
but my memories are lost
I refuse to find them
they come back to find me.
to make me remember
of what I was.
and make me who I am
and what I will be
Why am I so lost
trapped in my own falls
the falls should bring me up
make me stronger
Its made me weak

    Sometimes it is our own memories that makes us our own enemy.

    We can bury those memories and try to forget, but unless we deal with the emotions that are tied to them they will continue to haunt us at our every turn.

    I like how you put this out there for the reader and left us with the mindset that you have not only opened yourself up, but also exposed the rawness that you are feeling.

    Nicely written

    I'm sorry you feel so weak. Maybe someday you'll be able to look back, say you learned and find that you actually have grown stronger. I hope you the best.
