Healing Poem by Christina Addison

Healing

Rating: 5.0


I'm sinking. There's no grasp I can hold onto.
I am drowning in the pain around me.
It slowly engulfs me as I go deeper.
I am fading....

Then someone grabs my hand.
They start pulling me through.
Not pulling me out or away from the pain, but through.
Deeper into the water, the pain.
I went past things that I wanted to forget, and it hurt so much.
I saw a light below me in the deep darkness of the water. But I wasn't near it.....yet.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I am a victim of childhood sexual abuse. And I am in therapy and am healing little by little. And Jesus is the person who is pulling me thru.

They start pulling me through. yes when we pray to Jeus, pray for the strength to go through the pain as you write. yes we receive this grace from the Lord Jesus, because he suffered terrible agony on the holy cross. i was watching the passion of Chris by Mel Gibson and saw the interview with the man who acted as Jesus. he was telling.. it was nore than make up. they were beating me in real. i was dying.. after the acting they took me atonce to the hospital and i had to have a heart operation. the doctors told that the actor can die during the acting. but i wanted to go through......... your point...... the strength to go through. may the good Lord Jesus grant you this grace today and lead your to complete healing. we all have stories to telll where we suffered... thank you dear poetess. tony

A great start with a nice poem, Christina. I think that you are hurt to the unconscious level. The poetry can make its catharsis for you but you should develop a poetic sense for it. I feel your pain in my heart. You may like to read my ars poetica named as (Poetic Sense-1) Thanks
