utter futility of self righteous anger
wraps it's dark cloud around me.
my brain becomes foggy, and my
perception becomes distorted.
love feels like hate, and pain feels like freedom.
my fear leads to anger, which leads to a split
second choice where my fists punch a concrete
wall.
my hand explodes with pain that spreads to my arms
and then to my whole body. the pain numbs my inner
pain and discomfort. I want to be a spiritual person, but
sometimes I'm just a frail human being afraid to feel hurt,
so I numb myself with pain. Utter insanity to try to escape
suffering by self-harm, but that's what happens sometimes.
I am left facing the wall cradling my hand. I am left with a feeling of utter futility. My own powerlessness over my
self destructive behavior leaves me humbeled and willing to ask for help. God, help me let go. Help me not harm myself and others. Help me feel emotional discomfort without resorting to
punching walls. Help me be free.
