My fault, I deserved it, my fault, so stupid.

not an eternity
though it feels like it.
Is there ever going to be an end to the greyness?
I am falling will anyone catch me?

The silence is so loud,
the memories scream,
scream to be heard,
the pressure builds,
like a suitcase
that has too much,
so much that you have to sit on it to get it closed.

as the greyness gathers,
my thoughts take over,
threatening hurting,
I can't breathe,
i can't see,
panic arises.

darkness, i find my fear in the darkness,
a fear so incredibly overwhelming that i cannot move,
nor can i shout.

hidden, hiding behind the charade
dreaming, drowning, falling,
each day is a struggle.

Ashamed of feeling the way i do
ashamed of needing anyone
ashamed of what happened
ashamed of me.

how could i let it happen? why did i not scream, why did i not leave sooner? why did i miss all the warnings?
the 'rational' part of me keeps telling me that the 'why' game is pointless. but at the moment i cant listen, i cant find myself.
thanks for all your replies in my head********** possible trigger*********

thank you all so much for your caring posts! its been a tough couple of weeks.
i have seen a counselor but i dont feel a great connection with her, and am a little afraid to tell her what i am really feeling, so i find before i can stop myself, telling her the things she wants to hear. like you know i'm progressing realy well, and that i am getting over it. she makes me a little uncomfortable, like she wants me to be better so she can move onto the next more deserving case.
its hard too as i am not very good at talking about it and tend to use my poetry and songs but she refuses to hear it, i try to tell her i'm not ready to deal with 'straight talking' about what happened but shes not interested. i kinda feel obligated to "get over it" has anyone been through anything similar? in terms of not clicking with the counselor?
