My soul has shattered (Dark poem)
-
NB: Just got to keep going a little longer.
My soul has shattered
My soul has shattered
No longer whole
Will I survive?
I no longer know…I am unrecognizable
Unsure of myself
Afraid of the future…
But the past as well.I long for safety
But who do I trust?
Without my soul
I feel so lostI cling to hope
What little there is
Should I keep going?
Just for a bit?

Hi Matty,
I’m sorry you feel so lost. Small slivers of hope have kept me going in the past when I had my darkest days. I wish that those same slivers f hope find and help you.
All my best wishes for brighter days ahead.

Hope you shine soon.
Your poem resonates so much with me. There is always hope, even if it is just a little spark. Reach inside yourself, and you will know who to trust. One practice I use is at the end of the day; I mentally list five things I am grateful for (I started with a list of three items).
There is hope even when your brain is telling you there isn’t. Keep going, even if it is one moment at a time. I know how hard this is, but I also know how strong you are Matty.
