A Poem: Bitter

Deep down I’m bitter
About everything,
My job is to cover it up
With silence

I can’t drink bitter any more due to gluten
that is why I am bitter too.

Llama’s are good to hug. Do you need one?

Keeping up a good fight is hard, it takes everything we have, every day, it can be a lot.

It’s lonely too, hard to connect to the earthlings when we’ve spent time in space.

You shouldn’t have to suffer, none of us should, it seems unfair. We didn’t deserve this.

Someday maybe we’ll have more answers, until then it just feels like waiting to die. Least it does sometimes for me.

Hard to break that pattern sometimes. “All we’re waiting for is something worth waiting for”- “scared we have nothing to say and no way to say it…but we can say it in three languages” few favorites of mine.

Stay safe EH. You’ve got someone on the other end of the pond who’s rooting for you.

I am not that good at hiding my bitterness over my situation especially now during COVID. I think I come across as bitter and impatient now.

For me, it’s my selfishness and narcissism that causes my bitterness. But it’s also instrumental in hiding it.

Same.

I feel some resentments and bitterness underneath at times and it feels harsh.

I just respond by having some outbursts… hurt my hand on my desk yesterday.

Not the wisest thing but it feels better than the pain of things.
