Torn Apart

I’m torn apart… my stomach is in knots… shock and hurt find me… ricocheting through out my body…

Is this my plight now? 

I wallow in my torment…
I weep endlessly…
Will this affliction never end?

Is this my plight now?

Why? I ask myself… but sadly there is no answer…
Is there justification for this turmoil I am enduring?

Is this my plight now?

I’ve been in the dark, shall I stay?

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
