The voices trickle
In and out
As angry music plays
In my mind.
I play it over again,
Till the tune is familiar,
Till the song never ends.
Letting them run over me,
Like fingers tickling my back,
Causing chills...
I feel ill,
I feel dead,
I am left stripped
Of my trust, of my love,
Of the things I thought were true.
It is a lie,
But I can't help listening to it,
Remembering the times
When truth softly sang,
And trust was innocent
It's all in my mind,
I rewind and play it again.
Just to hear it,
Just to cringe,
So the pain comes back
Over and again.
His nails seep deeper
Into my skin,
Exposing the things
I already know
About myself, about him.
And the angry words trickleā€¦
They fall into me,
They come out of me,
They have become a part of me.
And I immersed myself in them.

(big hugggsssssss) Now it is time to start up a new song of forgiveness and move on, so start conducting one and let the new words of peace fulfill you! (sigh) I send angel hugs your way, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sarah, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

This makes me think of someone listening to a painful message on an answering machine. This is why "erase" buttons were made. Or maybe it's about a song that never ceases to lay eggs in your brain when it plays. Either way, awesome poem.

I voted for this poem! I liked it! This poem sort of reminded me of myself, I love your poetry and I'm hoping to read more.

Where you look for broken hearts...you'll find me...
mend my broken heart and love me
because I forget how to smile.
