Hello, My Poetry and Writing Friends!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hello, my Poetry and Writing Friends! How are you doing? I hope you are well! Thank you for visiting my poetry and writing blog; I appreciate you!
.
I haven’t been feeling very well, so it’s been a struggle the last few days to get out of bed and be conscious during the day. My brain wants to vacate, and some other stresses are weighing on me, which is not helping.
.
One thing I told myself I would keep doing when times like this occurred was to keep writing, and so that’s what I intend to do.
.
It doesn’t matter what I am writing about, as long as I am writing.
.
Today, my thoughts drifted to the agony of being married to my first husband, and what happened after that just steamed out of me.
.
It’s over and done with now, but the results are what you are about to read. Yes, it’s harsh, and probably an overshare, but it’s REAL, and that’s what I am.
.

Here we go!
~Poetry is NOT dead!~
VENT…From the Past
Because I can
I blame it on the smoke in my eyes
those aren’t tears, and I’m not crying
.
you didn’t just rip and tear my heart out
.
you can stand there and say anything you want to
.
I know I’m tough enough to take it
.
I’ll be your emotional punching bag
.
you say I make you sick?
.
I like it
.
you lay there on the floor
.
why not die there?
.
I’ve cleaned your mess up one too many times
.
and now I’m jaded and having trouble
feeling any emotions at all
.
maybe it’s the medication
.
I’m sick of trying
.
I’m sick of being your robot
.
I’m sick of faking it
.
and can’t spend one more breath on
pretending that I like you
.
I
just
can’t
stand
the
sight
of
you
.
was it worth it?
.
are you happy now?
.
I am!
.
Sometimes I get frustrated and irritated at how my ex-husband treated me during our 15 years of a horrible marriage.
.
It feels good to get the frustration down on paper, and then I can move on…until next time.
.
Thanks for reading, and forgive me for my mini-outburst!
.
Take care, and until next time, stay safe, and be blessed! 🙂
