Heavy weight on her shoulder
Anchor
Today she feels the weight of the world on her shoulder; the essence of loss and loneliness is at its peak. Yes, tears shape her face as she sinks into the pain of her heart.
As the flashes of lightning sprinkle, their way across her night sky, so were her memories, followed by the thunderous sounds as her screams complete the storm she is weathering inside.
The boat is her heart, and the anchor to it has fallen but can't find depth,
Her sail is her mind, and she doesn't know how to navigate it properly.
In the middle of her storm She is hopeful, She is honest.
She knows She can ride the waves
OF PAIN AND COME OUT victorious. She is determined to persevere She is Introverted Decisions.
Ageless
At 31, someone has yet to love me truly,
yet to sacrifice for me freely and choose me rightly. Some love isn't all-encompassing.
Sometimes you separate, because you weren't good together to begin with.
The hooded eyes you stared with are now clear.
It's not always heartbreak that has us drowning in tears,
but it's because we feel defeated, and the loss of or replaced time given. That's two different things.
Betrayal of a Marriage
EVERYTHING SEEMS LIKE it's going in circles,
The grudge of the pain started as a sinful seed of lust, but that was mis- taken for love to whom this feeling was conceived and turned into a marriage of revenge.
A broken relationship stuck unselfishly, lost in betrayal with denial
