Wife Beater

Releasing emotions can be very important before it get's to be too late.

Battered black and blue
Torn dreams now
Will they ever come true ?

What happened to you?
Holding in intense emotions
Created explosive anger for two

A loving, life-long friend
Who would have stood by
Instead of having a hurtful end

So hide in your shell
Don’t talk about it
Don’t dare tell

Holding it in
Living in your own hell

You are absolutely right about the need to release emotions. My generation was taught to keep our skeletons in the closet, and I've been doing that all my life. I wish I had the nerve and emotional strength to share some of the experiences of my life that keep haunting me. A very thought-provoking poem.

I sadly think many live in this hell, and I truly hope they can escape it.

Very powerful write, Staci, potentially life saving. That's one reason I write: to get it out. Over. Done. Before, I'd hold onto it until I'd explode. Don't have much of that any more, since writing. Thank God. Onto the next poem! :) Well done.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
