"Yesterday I Cried" - 24th July 2011

This post is dedicated to anyone out there who has ever had someone hurt them and found the courage to move through the heartache and tears towards a brighter tomorrow.


Yesterday I cried, because there was nothing left to say, feel or do, but cry, I cried for all the times I was too afraid to shed a tear in the fear that if I did I may never stop...

Yesterday I cried, I cried for a soul that aches with a sorrow so deep I actually feel I may drown in it, an endless sea of hopelessness, self doubt and heartache...

Yesterday I cried, because there was an anger so deep and so real, I thought it might eat me alive, overwhelmed with a hate that looked sure to devour my soul...

Yesterday I cried, for the eternal optimist that once was, but is no more, for the carefree spirit I used to be, that has lost it’s way and the ability to believe, hope or dare to dream...

Yesterday I cried, for me, for innocence lost and strangely I even cried for you, I cried for the man I thought you were and the stranger I will never know or care to understand...

Yesterday I cried, for days gone by, for a shinning future lost, for the hurt I feel today, I cried for your unwillingness to take responsibility for your actions and all the lives that you have destroyed, including your own...

Yesterday I cried, for the darkness that has stained your soul, the web of lies you’ve spun and the trail of deceit that is now your chosen path. I cried for all the days that I did not have the courage to stand against your tirade...

Yesterday I cried, because I am so sick and tired of being sick and tired, feeling lost, hopeless and weary, I cried for all that has been lost and in the hope peace, dignity, integrity and justice will be found...

Yesterday I cried, in the small hope, maybe one day I wont want or need to cry, that a glimmer of something brighter waits on the horizon. I cried in the hope that tomorrow will be a better day, a brighter day and maybe, just maybe holds a reason to smile...

Yesterday I cried, but not today, today is a new day, unmarred and muddied by the sins of yesterday, I stand bravely and walk in to an unknown tomorrow with a prayer in my heart and a new determination...

  1. That was so beautiful and powerfully realistic and relatable, it gave me shivers! It is truly amazing how someone can endure such pain and still find the strength to pick themselves up and open their heart again to the vulnerability of an unknown future and dare to find love again. You give us all hope,
