I exist at a depth, beyond wallowing and sorrow Where No emotion could reach, except love But love has betrayed me, love has left me strewn and sown; Haphazardly, irretrievably, sown I stand now, not broken.. unfixed, Unhinged.. from pain, from grief Removed from tears, my heart; a sieve that is unwanted by love, undesired by it. Though it dwells in me it spares me no thought. Though I have reached out, I am held down like Atlas The tension is unbearable, tearing; at the self-inflicted knots, caverns of solitude Pits of loneliness Left unsaid, is the hurt Gnawing at the pillars that once held, carried the burning torch that lit up my soul I am undone, I am alone.. I am alone

Dissociation
I exist at a depth, beyond wallowing and sorrow Where No emotion could reach, except love But love has betrayed me, love has left me strewn and sown; Haphazardly, irretrievably, sown I stand now, not broken.. unfixed, Unhinged.. from pain, from grief Removed from tears, my heart; a sieve that is unwanted by love, undesired by it. Though it dwells in me it spares me no thought. Though I have reached out, I am held down like Atlas The tension is unbearable, tearing; at the self-inflicted knots, caverns of solitude Pits of loneliness Left unsaid, is the hurt Gnawing at the pillars that once held, carried the burning torch that lit up my soul I am undone, I am alone.. I am alone
