Silence In Solitude

Merry go round of emotions, hurt and confused..
Anger mixed with sadness, broken and abused.
 
Heart tormented by the past, chained to the present.
Soul slipping away, through the fingers of resentment.
 
Doubt and hope, twisted up with agony..
Grasping and clinging, to the faith that sustains me.
 
Feelings of loneliness and despair, I want a clean slate.
Wondering every minute, of the hour, what holds my fate.
 
Battered ego, from your poison dipped words..
Eyes wide shut, love is blind, can't move onward.
 
Blaming myself, life teeters on a delicate balance.
Until, I cannot cry anymore but, in the dead of silence.

very well written, agony is well portrayed, grief will be your place for a while and you will ease out, changed but still you. Take care.
