A Poem About My Bitter Soul

[scarlettsupper]

I write this poem induced by Ketamine and reflecting on the pain I've caused.
Not just to myself, but the people around me.

I broke the heart of the love of my life. Consequences are a must.

Let me know what you think.



Bitter
I know my darkness
My darkness has lived within my heart for many years
It hides sometimes. It can even lie dormant.
But it’s always there.

A bitter slug within me that presents itself in many ways
It toys with harmful products
Just a whisper of them
When I am happy and calm just this little bit of darkness keeps it at bay
God forbid a life without

But sometimes…
sometimes
It manifests itself in ways even I cold not predict.
In ways that if I heard of I’d revolt.
In ways that crush the brittle hearts I’d tried to build.

Biting rage and ill thoughts
That come out in a burst
Or a subtle… manipulative little twist.

But that’s me.
And will always be.
‘Til the bitter end.

What-a-waste.

kind of scary. you just made it clear.
every one has a hidden dark side to them. and it will never go away. its always their. just dormant and waiting

The first 2 stanzas were definitely relatable for me
