Hidden messages

Posted on by A. Rinum in Poetry

How can you possibly say
Everything’s going to be okay?
Little do you know
Pieces of me are aching to let go.

My mind is shattering, and here I am
Escaping myself all over again.

Pick me up
Love me the same
End this hatred
And this never-ending game
Save me from myself
Erase this pain.

Insecure
Misunderstood

Damaged
Rejected
Oppressed
Wrecked
Neglected
Ignored
Numb
Guilty

Or all of the above?

(First letter of the first word!)

Poetry book: Curing My Venom

Published by A. Rinum

I was born in Pakistan, and I moved to the US when I was four years old. From the rural villages of Pakistan to the buildings of New York. Come take a glimpse into my life.

  1. I would embrace you and tell you that you are going to live and that you are not guilty for being yourself. I felt guilty for what others did to me and that I didn’t help myself and that others couldn’t really help or I didn’t let them try. I really don’t want to lose you as a friend and would love to be there for you to overcome these things together.
    And it is very good that you wrote all these things down.
    I hope you know that I wouldn’t want to see you be gone and that you wouldn’t have to do anything. It breaks my heart that you are suffering like this and that you must feel very alone.
    It is so sad and depressing that there are so many people, but many of us are either scared of each other or hate each other or just fear ourselves and such things.
    And I don’t know where you are at the moment (where you live).
    But I would wish to pick you up and bring you somewhere safe. If you would want that.
    Over all, I am thankful for having you and don’t want you to feel this horrible and alone.
    I am probably far away from distance and I am not sure whether I would reach you at the moment, but I really don’t want to lose you. I hope we will meet one day face to face.
    🤗💞💛💜
