Healing through words

A collection of my thoughts/ free writing based on Rupi Kaur’s prompts in her book ‘Healing through words’.

Disclaimer: Can be depressing to read >_<

deep sadness

what causes deep sadness?

is it the depth of the sadness?

what is the measure of the depth or the measure of the sadness?

can anyone say?

what is sad?

what is deep?

all I know is that I cannot seem to get out of its depths.

it’s that deep.

pain

there are times in my life I’ve ignored it.

there are times in my life I’ve faced it.

there are times in my life I’ve run away from it.

there are times I wish I would not feel it.

but there are not many times I’m without it.

Pain.

silent noise

my mouth opens to scream

my eyes are a never ending stream

my hands do not comfort my head

and instead beats it

my heart is already broken

but breaks some more

you might think there might be a lot of noise

yes, there is noise..

the silent one that no one can hear

hurt

is that all I am?

Hurt?

Why?

why am I hurt?

why do people hurt me?

why do I let them?

why do I think people hurt me?

what has hurt me?

everything seems to hurt me

and I still can’t seem to understand why

after all these years of hurting,

why do I feel so hurt?

the crack

the crack in my soul

you might think perhaps it lets the light in

but it leaked all my light out

now I live in darkness looking for the light outside
