Friday, May 16, 2008 | A Poem/Artistic story

This poem may not make sense to anyone but it does to me....

PTSD is like a egg

The shell is my wall and protection

the clear yolk is my surface behavior to others

the yellow yolk is my core and my deepest pain

PTSD is deep in many different layers

layers of phyisical, emotional, sexual, mental and spiritual

Layers are overlapping eachother in a time

It smells just as bad as onion

Pain of the onion

opening by pages of layers of my past, present and future

each layers has it's own level of smell

each layers has it texture

each layer has it fluild

most of all, my PTSD is one smelly onion

My life is like a onion

Full of many different things

Secrets yet to open and not to open

It's my onion... who would want to take my pain?
