Healing

I look at myself
I look at what I've become
I'm completely numb
A walking, scarring disappointment

And you're gone.
My body is healing but I am not healed.

I had a dream about you
You called my name, you held me in your arms
You said all the things you used to say
But the difference was I woke up alone
I'm cold
Frozen inside myself.

I think this is amazing and I could completely relate to every feeling and image in this! I was thinking the other day about my own scars and how I am always healing or recovering. I am never fully healed, I will always have my scars. Whether I like it or not. And the last part, I had a dream about my boyfriend finding out that I started up again and how he completely lost it and resented me for it. I was so scared about it that even after I woke up, I still had to tell myself over and over that it was just a dream and that nothing had happened.

I'm glad you could relate, it's nice to know we're not alone sometimes, isn't it? Be strong
