Afraid To Live My Life

unable to cope
the broken man
hides at home
writing a poetry
about a life
he is too afraid
to live

My partner said to me a few days ago that I don’t seem to connect with her enough. Instantly I agreed and realised it isn’t just with her, it is with everyone and everything, my kids, my hobbies, my friends and family - even myself.

I saw clearly just how broken I am at the moment and how in need of healing I am right now.

This is the first poem from the book Augmented Realities: Human Poetry X A.I. Art - and its poignant. I use writing to heal. To express. And to understand how I am feeling.

This poem expresses my (at times) inability to live. Due to fear, anxiety, habit and trauma.
Of course, I am working on it. And working on myself, and hopefully by sharing, helping you as well.

If this post has resonated with you, I would love your support.

This post was inspired by the book, Augmented Realities: Human Poetry x A.I. Art
