The room full of shadow
and dim light,
As I wake to a new day
With no willpower to move myself,
I roll out of bed
and onto the cold, empty floor

My muscles are tight,
my face is still sore
and a pounding headache
are the physical reminders
of what I had endured...
The rest was locked away in my memory,
much too painful to try to rehash
And still the memories come flooding back

Broken and split right down the center,
I somehow force myself to get up
(But oh so slowly)
Telling myself that I have to
and crying would not be a choice
Like a breathing stone,
I wander into the bathroom
and look at myself in the mirror...
What a ignorant little brat I am,
she trusted me and I let her fall
Such an unworthy friend was I,
and such an unworthy being I am

Now back in my room
and unable to eat or drink,
I look around the empty room
So many good times were spent here
and yet, so many bad
Soundless and dark,
once again I am unable to move
but still no tears will fall
I turn on the stereo
and fall into bed,
Now here in the comfort of my blankets,
strength is slowly being restored
Even as memory haunts me
and stabs me with it's blade

Yes, I know...but it's so very hard when I am unable to right the things done wrong. To bring hope and strength and give guidence to those who can't find it themselves. When a vow is broken because of my own personal war...

Yes, find it I will.

Thank you very much Sven.

You express your feelings very well through this poem.  I can just see myself not wanting to go through the day, especially when pain has been endured.

Dark--
  I know not of the pain that your going through but it sounds like it's really hurting you...if your blaming yourself for what others do it's pointless...feel free to email me if you need to...
