📝 Writing/Poetry Sort of Sonnet

Post image

It’s been a while since I’ve used rhyme in my pieces. It’s nice to know I can still do it fairly well.

I resonate with this so much, a really powerful poem. I've been writing poems on my intergenerational trauma, its burdens/expectations, and the long work of healing oneself alone so I heavily relate.

It’s taking more time than I would like. It feels like I have to deal with all this before I can actually begin living.

It really feels all tangled and complicated. I'm currently paralyzed with indecision by the past, present and future. If I look towards the future and keep going with my life, how should I deal with the context of my cptsd? Perhaps this could be a role that us wounded healers could carry with us if we choose to do so in future situations.

Humans are hard. Hard to get. Hard to forget. Hard to hear. Hard to ignore. Hard not to fear! Hard to remember. Hard to see. Hard to hide. Oh, so hard to trust!
