Pain In My Heart

  • hondachicc
I really needed some therapy today...I was given some heartbreaking news last night
and just didn't know what to do with myself today....after looking at a few photos,
I found this one that my grandson snapped of me...I was horrified at the photo at first,
but then it hit me....this describes my feelings today...exactly..............
so smashing some elements together....writing a few jumbled words from my
jumbled head, and from my aching heart...this is where I ended up....

Journaling:
Is it too late?
Have I lost her forever?
I feel like I am running out of time,
or have I already run out?

Every day I think we have
turned a corner that shows
a little light, but it seems to
always lead back to darkness.
FOr so many years you have
been my reason to get up...
trying to save you from
yourself. I finally realized
that I can't save you, you
have to save your own self.
But did I make a mistake by
letting the handle loose? You
keep falling further and I can't
seem to reach you anymore.
How far will you go before
you realize you are not going to
survive this life you have chosen?
This latest news has taken more
of a toll on me than you will
ever imagine. I will always
ask myself where I went wrong.
I love you still, I always will.


Please don't make me send you
to God before I go. I know he
can care for you in a way that
I can't but I am too selfish to
let you go like that. My hand is
there, just reach out and take it.

ouch, it just hurts to read this, let alone to imagine what you are going through..But what a superb way to use your creativity to express what you feel.I hope it helps a bit to put your thoughts into less of a jumble.
So sorry you have to let go and something more powerful than your love for her is taking over. I'm sure you have done everything you can.wishing you lots of strength.Big hugs
 
I understand your feelings, but all you can do is let go. And know that you are there if needed. That's not easy, it's even damn hard.

Big hugs !
 
Nana....... why is it that i can ramble about nothing but when my heart is just filled, I can't speak?
Your page just overflows with your emotions and is gorgeously done. It hurts to look at and to feel it. But that is what art truly is.
 
I'm so sorry for your pain and sorrow. I hope there is a way you can reach out to someone for help. This sounds too big to handle by yourself. ((hugs))
 
Such a moving and poignant LO, Linda! The photo alone speaks volumes. The journaling on top of that completes a portrait of a broken, hurting heart. I hope you found some small measure of relief in your scrap therapy! You and your sweet family are in my prayers.

Pain at its worst, art journaling at its best! Hugs and prayers from one mother's heart to another.
 
I am so sorry for your pain - this is a page I would love to be able to create - I wish I could create a page that shows emotion as does this! thanks for sharing I hope it has helped to share this as I know it could lessen your burden
