I'm fine
Every day I smile
A smile I hide behind
My eyes conceal all that is within
The darkness around my heart consumes me
But when asked, I reply ' I'm fine'
My sense of loss, like a child looking for a hand to hold
My bitten fingernails
The feeling of falling when my feet are firmly on the ground
But when asked, I reply ' I'm fine'
The tension in my temples
The bubbling anger rising
The frustration of not being able to rid these feelings
The shortness of breath and increasing anxiety
But when asked, I reply ' I'm fine'
The tightening in my chest like a steel band crushing all beneath the surface
The weight pressing down on my shoulders
The pressure to perform
But when asked, I reply ' I'm fine'
The feeling like I'm chasing something I can not touch
The feeling of light burning out
Nothing has taste, nothing pleasures, I am numb
But when asked, I reply ' I'm fine'
This evil monster of black creeping up on me, clutching, clawing, feeding off my pain
Will it ever end? Will I be free?
Will this dormant strength rise again?
Until then..... when asked, I will reply ' I'm fine'

My Fathers Loss
Many years ago, I lost my father after his battle with colon cancer that later spread to his bones. The grief stayed with me longer than I expected. Ambrosia Behavioral Health helped me work through that loss, understand my emotions, and find healthier ways to cope and move forward. https://www.ambrosiatc.comSee More
