when the backward glance become so severe that gritting your teeth clenching your fists and praying doesn't make it all go away or at least be bearable share it when the hurt is abominable pain behind your eyes block out the good in you blackness is all you can see don’t know where to start where to stop how and where and . . . when to make it go away share it dungeons of despair give no mercy you rattle your chains ask for understanding; at least a little peace the steel door of NO! slams shut closing down all effort all means of hope share it ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways ~*~ |

"when the backward glance become so severe that gritting your teeth clenching your fists and praying doesn't make it all go away or at least be bearable share it" Sometimes it is too painful to share. But if one can overcome the guilt or shame or pain and share then it could be a positive thing. Enjoyed. JL  Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself. |

That's what I'm talking about, J.L. I probably saved my life by using poetry to share my darkest secrets. Thanks for stopping by and sharing you thoughts. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways ~*~ [This message has been edited by JerryPat2 (11-05-2011 04:49 PM).] |

I definitely understand this... Long before anyone read what I wrote, the pen was more than a friend... it was a raft. |
