A Poem: Ashamed

“Ashamed”

Lying on the floor I hold my breath

Waiting as the cool breeze passes over my body

I wait and hold back the rage

Disappointment comes over me 

Sinking in my chest knows my heart 

Tarnished again I just want to fade

I hear the singing in the distance

Notes floating on the air a tear slowly rolls

I feel the pull hooks deep inside of me

Slowly sinking into the dirt I go

Over my finger nails I try to grasp

I try to dig in I want to fight

I reach out into the void

Yearning for the light

Yearning for some hope

All of my world has come crashing down

Slowly a whisper crawls across my lips

Asking for forgiveness I still feel dirty inside

A rain drop of a tear falls into my hand

A warm embrace comes over me

Lifting gently I begin to become whole again
