Just me and my thoughts, most of them silly.

Name:
Location: brisbane, queensland, Australia

I am a daughter, a sister, a wife, a mother, a friend. Sometimes I am good at these things, sometimes I am not.

Silence and contempt

I poured my heart out
And was met with the stony silence of your soul
Do I interpret this as contempt?
When did it come to this?
Where my distress wasn't worth a single word.
No whisper of breath escaped in reply
This is the carelessness of time.

Untended Heart

And as the words burn in my ears
I feel the slow burn of sadness again
Not so familiar a guest
It's been a long time since I let the tide take me under
But I feel it now
And for the first time in a long time
I feel, hollow and only sadness
All the light has dimmed
And I am struggling to break back to the surface
To the air and the light
To the joy and life
And I feel sick to my stomach, like the ground has been pulled from beneath my feet
How did I let this happen?
How was I crippled so quickly?
I must have left my heart unwatered for some time, for it took barely anything to suck the last bit of life from it.
