Internal Struggle (written after I read a book)

A petty argument suddenly gone bad
a yell, a thud, a risen hand- the tears fall down
a rush of pain-not knowing if one can feel whole again
emotions flowing through my eyes and down my cheeks unsatisfied
another comes and stands blindly there, so unaware of my anguish and despair
a shuddering breath and the rhythmic flow of the pen
soft trembling full of self doubt, what is this life really all about?
As I stare at the page and watch my story unfold through watery eyes my soul grows old
I cant believe this happened to me….We seemed a happy family…And yet, we are...
why should I cry I mean its not enough to die, Yet maybe if I run away…then everything will be ok
but if I try it wont suffice- I’ll still be held in this tormenting vice-And now as my last tears start to dry I ask was it worth it to cry? But I won’t let the enemy win-for to do so would be a sin
I guess I will just move forward then and pray that this will never happen again.

What book is this? It sounds interesting if it elicits this kind of emotion from you.
