Re: Writing As A Form Of Therapy

The guilt inside of me

Tears at my shattered soul

For I am the selfish one

The one who has gone

My children are home

Alone in the house

For the darkness shows no light

All day and all night

All control that was once seen

Has vanished from my sight

Now all that remains

Is someone with nothing left to fight

I do not deserve

My loving family

For who could love me

I am broken beyond repair

The hatred inside of me

Tears me apart

There is no need to go on

For the darkness has won.

Big hugs @Snowie 💜

Re: Writing As A Form Of Therapy

Hi @Snowie,

It is great to see you expressing yourself here in poetry. It can be a very theraputic when dealing with big feelings or dark thoughts. I hope this is helping at this time.

I am just sending you a quick check in email to make sure you are safe though.

Re: Writing As A Form Of Therapy

Poem for a special day

 

Love flows in moments

with a flickering connection.

 

The warmth of other

people, even

in mind.

 

Strong we can be

when we call to them.

 

They are always there,

if only

in imagining.

 

Feel those thoughts

in friendly spaces of

the I. 

Re: Writing As A Form Of Therapy

Hi @eth, feeling you under the like button on the other thread. Just to let you know I just wrote a poem here if you are curious to read it. I often post poems here and haven't often told you. But I know you are interested in poetry too.

I so love thinking about your new life that has started happening. So happy for you that good things are going on. Where you are now, there seems to be so many more doors of possibility open to you. Maybe writing poetry again will be one of them. Heart

Re: Writing As A Form Of Therapy

Hi @Exoplanet, I remember you in this thread too, some of the most substantial posts here. Also feeling you under the like button on the other thread, lol. I seem to be playing hide and seek in the forum with you and @eth today. Smiley Tongue

Re: Writing As A Form Of Therapy

Love it @Mazarita

I haven't written anything in almost a year.  Yesterday I was so fired up with anger that I started to compose something in my mind, but didn't make pen to paper.

Thanks for your positive observations of my life.

What is it that makes today special for you?

Re: Writing As A Form Of Therapy

It's essentially a secret, @eth. But I can say it's because I feel so good this morning. Just one of those special days. Woman Happy
