A confessional poet.....that's what they tell me I AM...who r they?the
AUTHORITY figures of my life blah......well here is a poem of whatever you
want it to be.....blah

I watch as he sits across from me
the emotions simmering on his face
like some sort of movie
the pain of his glaze, ripping my defense
to shreads, pulling each thought and
turning it against me, twisting agony
Why did I wait? that's all he seems to be
able to say, then he gets angrier at my
thoughts of not caring what happens
I try to placate him with phrases of
no worries, he tells me,
"cut out this crap, you have to have these surgeries" he doesn't want to
understand that
I'm afraid it won't help against whats
happening to my body
Maybe he's just as afraid of what will
happen as I am....
I don't really know,I've got try
to hold on to his hand and get through
this with him by my side

Hey hon. You know that sometimes you have to take someone else's word for it, especially in health cases. Surgery is a good thing, it's just taking stuff out of your body that doesn't belong there.
Remember what I told you before. Some things can only be seen from the outside.
I'm always here to talk.

Regina,
Your poem shows a great deal of emotion as well as truth. I can only have faith that everything will turn out all right. If you ever need someone to lean on you know where I am. Good Luck, Regina, and love always.

I like this poem. I haven't had the chance to read many of your poetry... But I will get around. As far as the surgery goes... What's wrong? I bet there was just a few uncertain thoughts before hand and my hope is that all went well. I hope to be able to read more of your poetry in the future. And as most everyone else said..I am really good as understanding things... if you ever need to talk... I am here. -Always Carissa

Ina,I'm confused. Maybe I've been out of the loop for too long but I do not understand what you are conveying in his poem. I understand what you are saying in it, but not how it relates to you as a confessional writer, as I believe you put it. The poem was excellent, but sad. I hope everything is OK.
