They say children are resilient

Able to bounce back
From abuse and neglect
Maybe they seem to
But beneath strong personas
Memories persists
Alienation lingers
Knowing no one will come
We all cracked long before we shattered
Because falling apart were never an option
Written for Quadrille #92: Take a crack at poeming.
All I could think of where a line from a song. So I went with that inspiration.

Good observation that falling apart is not an option.
So sad, and so sadly true.
Good understanding of childhood trauma. Just because it isn’t coming out doesn’t mean it isn’t there. Good song also.
This is so immensely sad, and relating to Avicii made it even more poignant…
Have you seen the documentary, I think his cracks were all too visible.
