This is so unfair
I don't get a voice
You have shut me out
Away from you
I want you to know
This is breaking me
I can't concentrate
On anything but you
I just can't believe
You won't listen to me
I can't understand
Why this is happening
And everywhere that I turn
There's no answer for me
Losing my hold on reality
And I want to scream
And send back pain
But I won't... no I won't
And I want to die
All I do is cry
But I won't die ... no I won't
Though it's killing me
I will go on
Because I'm strong
Though for the life of me
I cannot really see
A reason why
And I just want to know...

Pepper darling girl this is wonderful not the pain you are going through but the ability you have to express it my darling girl.

Truly you are an amazing writer ((((((hugs))))))) So you write to release the pain you are doing it sooooooo amazingly well darling heart keep writing and watch the pain fade. Which it will, but not if you don’t write it out

Be kind to yourself, YOU, take time for you. This worries me, the despair. I'm in that place right now, maybe not this bad, not as much, but I have been there. Take time for YOU.

*sigh* my heart breaks for you....sometimes we never know the reason why...I wish I had some magical answer that would make the pain go away but it is something only you can work through...write it out..that helps a lot. **big big hugs**

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

Bless you Marsha... it is working.. slowly but surely... your support means so very much... I hope you know ...

Kathleen.. from the depths of despair I am crawling back up here... thank you for your kindness.. I'm writing it away.. it's getting a little easier ...

Startime.. thank you .. I will continue as needed...

I do want to tell you three and all of you, actually.. this place and ya'll have helped me more than anything.. first I only wanted "sad" poems and "sad" songs.. but I read on and on and soon I found joy in sweet poems and loving poems and fun poems.. and so with each read.. at least for a little while, I felt my spirits lift..

and then to read these kind, encouraging words from each of you... to know they are meant with sincerity... that helps so much too...

it is getting easier, and though I may not, ever, know all the why's.. at least I'm learning to get past the pain and learning slowly to just let go...

Bless u all.. your hearts are as beautiful as your poetry   You all shine!!!

Hugz and lots of love,

Pepper

(tears fall down my cheeks) I can feel such sadness behind these words, sweet Lavenia, my heart cries out to you, for I believe such questions like these can be so bewildering to answer ourselves! (BIG HUGGGSSSSSSS) We are always here for you, sweet friend, write out your thoughts to us, for it helps and we will always be here to offer you compassion to help you heal! We all love you so much, sweet friend, my prayers are with you always! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Lavenia, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Step through the
barrier of my mind,
enter my soul,
feel my desire,
let my eyes guide you
into the shadows
of my heart

Sue, I'm sure working to get there

Noah, it's getting better, I promise.. sometimes slowly, but definitely surely.

Lauren, the strength is there.. and with so much support, I'm finding it easier to tap ..

Juanita.. I hope so too... perhaps 4 therapies are enough.. u think?

Thank you Nancy.. it does work for me.. better than any other therapy..

Pepper - I'm reading words of hurt in your writings. I've found by writing them out it does help. I know the feel of silence, and I don't understand it either. Hope things will get better for you...
