Not the Forever of Yesterday just can't do it sitting in a circle once a week maybe more listening, not wanting to hear sharing, not wanting to give trying, but not wanting to do tissues collect tears that flow with words angry words hurtful words why me words always words coming from within seething for days, months even years and words coming from outside some blaming, others suggesting, always advising attacking each morning a fog of words thick and uninviting forming a wall one, of too many words built and piled too high to climb with no way to get through and in the darkness of night eyes closed, breathing calmed body at still cloaked in those words so heavy now that dreams no longer have their small little corner of their own and are beginning to fade from over use never to be replaced and feeling i just can't do this the connection's not there i am too detached what ever happened to "forever" M 6*2k |

forced myself to go to an al-anon meeting...couldn't handle it..after I realized the majority have been going there for 10-15 years...came home feeling defeated in more ways than one..thank you for the words Spitfire..I decided my outlet and comfort to be in poetry and my poet friends..they offer more than those meetings ever could..not saying that it doesn't help others..just not my cup of tea... ~~soft smile Maureen |

Maureen...the very things you describe here is what's kept me out of therapy for years. Maybe one-on-one, but never "group and grope". This forum here has done more for me than anything else. And, "you just gotta feel the love". So well said. Hardrock |

Detatched......that is me. I enjoyed this , it is wonderful...so free it flows off one lips. "There is an alter ego which dwells in every soul..." a-alibaster "I am as I am, nothing more, nothing less, I am tears of pain, tears of Death. |

I really like this, especially the next to last stanza. Dreams fading from overuse. I can feel that one. Take care, beautiful poem Catalinamoon |

Hardrock...well I have been on other forums and only last week was invited here..wish I had known about it sooner as some others tend to have jealousies and anonymous posters...(have had my share of both) but yes I told a friend of mine who is a psychiatrist about the poetry verses the group therapy and he said each person has to find what is right for them....and in those groups you are forced to talk and feel your problems among strangers...in poetry I feel among friends... thank you for your kind words... {{hugs}} Maureen |
