Tangles and Knots

Tangles & Knots In my hair there are tangles and knots Knots of anxiety, grief and depression that leave pulled painful ripped empty spots Tangle one hair, pull with the other Another knot to discover Pain from the pull and tangle Damage and destruction from the strangle Again & again the pull and the detangle begin Where it ends is where it begins Hopeless and tired of trying Only leads to more disappointment and crying What’s the point in trying When all you feel like is hiding Tangled and in distress Feelings of hopelessness and nothingness Tangled in this web we weave But I’m the one who is constantly deceived With false promises and no care It doesn’t matter about your tangled and knotted hair
