Bitter Sweet Ways
Poem of surreal proportions.
We all know left and right.
North and south.
Bitter sweet are the ways we live life.
We lie to ourselves that we are fine.
Even when the truth is to dark for those eyes.
The pain in his eyes.
The sadness he tries to hide.
He lies to himself, thinking that's right.
He thinks it's okay to say these bitter sweet things.
But I know he isn't okay.
I know nothing will ever be right in his brain.
You say move on.
You say it as if it's easy.
Emotional trauma is like the deepest ocean clawing at the throat to devour you.
Physical trauma keeps you laying around.
The day physcial trauma doesn't keep you laying around, will emotional trauma stop choking me whole.
