Sometimes things may seem impossible...

Patience, positive thoughts, and hard work is enough to get you out of distress. people who work hard despite challenges are the ones always successful.

Repetition

I have no Name
I am tormented…
trapped in an abyss of repetition,
Repetition of torment and pain with the same thing over and over again.

My eyes drained dry because there is no more tear;
So although I feel the pain I cry tearless cries,
Because my heart is weak, my body drained
and like a waste-land without water I stand bare.

All I feel is PAIN over and over again.
I feel pain repeatedly...

oh I said that already...
Repetitions see!
it is all that surrounds me so i cannot think…
just the same thing again and again,
It is all I know...

Pain, torment and misery...
Leaving me whitewashed with a limited vocabulary.

M favorite word...pain
My best vocab anguish, distress grief, heartache
and all the synonyms describing my reality...

I know nothing else.

I opened my mouth….
The same thing…pain.

I rose up in the morning but instead of sunshine
I saw shadows of misery rising up in the east,
And the shadow extending to the west,
so I was unable distinguish night from day.

The darkness of the shadows hugged me
And instead of warm I felt cold and lonely.

Pain over and over again...
oh I said that already...
Repetitions see!
it is all that surrounds me,
engulfing and shaping my reality.

Seems like I am left to smile and swim
if I want to go on living.
Living in my reality
Until it is placed behind me.
