She closes her mouth when she screams, Then wonders why no one hears her. She keeps her eyes shut while looking for love, Then wonders where it went. She covers her ears when people talk, Then wonders why they didn't communicate. She plugs her nose when she smells the roses, Then wonders why everythings stinks. She numbs her skin when he touches her, Then wonders why he's never physical. She ignores her senses every minute, Then wonders why she doesn't feel. She denies her instincts every moment, Then wonders why she's always wrong. She knows she should be doing everything different, Then wonders why she doesn't. "Be yourself... No matter what they say" - Sting |

I get the feeling of confusion here,but also of hesitation.A fear to touch in case it is not real.Whatever else you know you know your feelings are real. Believe in your feelings,take a leap of faith. I liked your piece very much. Jon [This message has been edited by Jon Mewett (edited 03-16-2000).] |

this is great!often we wonder why people don't respond in kind to us and we grumble/whine about it....sometimes we just don't realise the problem might be lying with us--that we don't put in enough effort in our relationships....Right?  ") |

I really liked this piece a lot! I think sometimes in life we don't know why things are happening, and instead of trying to go out and do something to "fix" it, it's easier to just complain about it. This piece held a lot of truth in it, great insight! Nice job! Amy ~Live today as though it were your last but prepare for tomorrow as though it were here~ |

Great poem, Heather. When we don't communicate, it's usually either our own misinterpretations or we give off the wrong vibes. When I was young, I was very shy. I wouldn't talk very much and would hide in my shell. People mistook that for being aloof, but inside I was screaming to get out--hoping people would like me. This poem really made me think about that. ~Gene [This message has been edited by u_gene (edited 03-16-2000).] |

Oh Heather! This one hit home for me. I am very familiar with this way of reacting to emotional situations, too familiar. I've often thought I was set apart from ppl until I met friends with the same problems. You display my case very well, better than I could. It takes courage to share these feelings and I, for one, am extremely glad you did.  --Jamie |

Well, I guess she's living in the wrong state...maybe she should move out of Confusion and get to California! Like everyone else put it, great poem! I see someone who's afraid to experience life, the world around her, I see someone who could really use a wake-up call...thanks for the wonderful read! Little Spyro T. Dragon |

Heather this is very good. What a message you send out!! How often we blame our own blindness on the sun being in anothers eyes. With your permission I'd like to print this. [This message has been edited by childomine (edited 03-20-2000).] |

thanks for all your comments guys! This one is actually a very personal poem for me, I'm very much like the "she" in this poem. Basically I,m really bad at taking my own advice. I,m glad some of you could relate to this also. Thanks again! Childomine- be my guest  "Be yourself... No matter what they say" - Sting |
