Healing From Self Sabotage

Self inflicted wounds

Hurt the most

When we're moving forward

With our efforts

To join in on

A ceremonial toast

We've come close

Too partaking in

Our envisioned future

Before present time's

Spin on life

Shatters a mirrored image

Of many blessings

Cut off

From intended recipients

Is our divine & giving true self

We'd personally

Love to hear from

After Healing From Self Sabotage

A poem with truth inside it.

[quinfinn]

what pains me is to see people who are stabbing themselves and do not have the wherewithal to see it happening. this is an excellent examination of self destruction.

There is truth to your words Brian - self inflicted wounds hurt the most and take the longest to heal...and the important question, do we learn from them? I should hope so. A brilliant write my friend. :) Julie

You speak true words here, my friend.
Great poem :)

[Frieda P]

So true they cut the deepest, and yet we continue to self sabotage ourselves time after time. Makes no sense whatsoever but your poem does, well done Bpoet!

[Pryde Foltz]

Why do we deny ourselves love; that is a very good question. Great write.

[SyberRose]

Nicely done and enjoyed the theme as always Brian:)

For some reason, I am thinking there is a wedding or ceremony in the middle of this poem. I see someone sabotaging a chance of sharing a life with someone. I have a close friend that does this every time she gets close with someone. A wall seems to come right up through the floor between her and her lover. It makes me sad and it makes me angry. Life is meant to be shared! I am probably way off here, but this is what your poem brought to me, Bpoet. Angi~

Self inflicted wounds
Hurt the most...

From the start, this piece grabs the reader with a deep truth. Healing must come from the self as well... Well done, BP.

You are correct my friend, the self inflicted wound is always the most painful and the hardest to heal from. Very nicely done.
