Stranger
The total loss of self,in time, space and memory.
Family, blood ties,
but never heart ties.
In a split second,
you whole life is thrown in front of you,
every penny wasted held to account.
Feeling like a stranger,
I stared at those who I once considered as family,
people who banished me without a second thought,
spoke words so brutally damaging,
I was torn to pieces on the spot.
The shock I suffered had me in a surreal world for sometime,
denial the strongest feeling sweeping through me,
convincing myself over and over again that my senses fooled me.
I could not have heard words so harsh,
witness such a horrific scene.
I felt like I had lost the whole world,
completely alone and belonging nowhere.
Solitude, a welcome respite from all the pain,
all the heartbreaks over and over again,
that just refuse to dissipate.
Nothing to lose anymore,
save my own life..
