Those Days

Post by evyn »

It is one of those days.
Those days, when even the brightest, sunniest sky cannot burn away the remnants of pain and shame.
The loneliness crashes against the carefully constructed banks I have built to contain it. Relentlessly buffeting my mind.
It once again breaks through the berms of my soul washing away all thought and reason. Dredging through and cutting away in the trail of the many scars and wounds. Shaking loose the torrent of emotion
I am helpless against the flood.
It is one of those days.

Hi evyn,

Sombre, raw and truthful... yet hauntingly beautiful in it's description.

Sitting with you if you like...

Thanks everyone, I am safe and doing well right now. I appreciate your support. This was written a while ago, on one those days I describe. I find it a good health check to go back and read the things I wrote in the moments of trouble. It does help me get in touch with myself and is a good check on whether I am actually in a good place or just numb to my feelings.

I apologize, I should have prefaced the post with a disclaimer that I was doing ok.

Hi evyn,

Don't worry it's okay, no need to apologise.
Good to hear you're doing well at the moment.
