There's no one listening when I cry loved ones see and then they sigh all discreetly turn away when ugly depression is on display no one acknowledges what triggers the fall yet blame one another for nothing and all I'm left to sink or swim alone an unwanted guest in my own home sometimes I wish that I could die to snuggle beneath the empty lie but guilt has held me in it's chains dangled my children in mocking disdain Painful to wake to "one more day" to find "death" hasn't gone away a permanent part, my next of kin my sensual lover, my carnal sin no one notices his rough embrace the scars that time will not erase with daggers he claims me as his own a prisoner within my skin and bone Death persuades with lusty call a promise if I'd just end it all & lay to rest this mess called life my farce of motherhood and wife I ache... & sometimes want to believe that death just might be good for me to never wake up to suffer this way nor be ignored by those who say~ they love me, when actions prove them false walk out on them all, to their loss but reality knows I'm going to stay & suffer the pain of another day, sad to say... I, ache... ~R.T. 6/02 "I shall never bond again, as I have bonded with you..." |

Tiers, I hate that you feel so depressed. I have been in that place often, and the loneliness is so hard. Hang on though, cause you have so many gifts, and reasons to be here. Sandra |

You drip of emotion here...moms seem to get the rough end quite a bit in my opinion... *Big hugs from mom to mom* and hey- if ms. margie-marge loves you, then I send my mushy love as well!!!  Take care~ ~D Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |

Wonderful in its' entirety, This grabbed me "no one notices his rough embrace the scars that time will not erase with daggers he claims me as his own a prisoner within my skin and bone" Well done, ~wranx "Writing is a perfectly natural thing to do....just remember to wash your hands afterward"....Heinlein. |

Tiersdin, I have found that when I am feeling this way, getting it out and writing the emotions into beautiful poetry really helps. Hugs and hope you feel better soon. Like a red brick, |

I have found that ache can last, until it is healed thank you for your words Distance is the prison for our bodies, but no prison could weaken our passion. |

Tier...this is a lovely poem, with pain just dripping from between the lines... I am so glad that you have found poetry as a means of therapy. It has meant so much to me also. I've been through a lot in the past few years and I think that the only 2 things which ground me are my wonderful husband and my writing. I hope you feel better soon.  ~ healing hugsLyra |

Lyra, thank you for that. It does help when there are ways to express the pain in order to purge it from one's soul. I find such a release not only through poetry, but creating my own music, and through art. Dark Angel, thank you... It's always good to hear that someone finds your work worth reading. I shall return the favor and read you as well. Ethome, left you speechless have I? I must work on that! *chuckles* Thank you so much for your comment... *hugs* ~R.T.

 (BIG HUGGGSSSSSSSS) Oh Tiersdin, this is so very sadly heartfelt, sweet friend, I'm sorry of the tears you feel inside but I am also so blessed to nhave you as a friend and that you are here and expressing yourself with poetry, for I always find it helps greatly and helps convince us we are never truly alone! (sad sigh) My thoughts are with you, sweet friend, God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Tiersdin, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
