I felt lousy today i was inadequate to cope with this state of mind A prey entrapped within a vulnerable self In desperate need to seek an outlet, A catalyst that would allow all such bitterness to gush out, I turned to my trusty pen and pad Writing is a form of catharsis, or so they say But how do you write when you feel so frail that you cant hold your pen? When your feelings swirl vigorously to torment,leaving behind a lifeless ragdoll When all you want to do is to hide and seek refuge rather than face the pathetic you? i couldnt bear to write i didnt manage to find solace I still feel lousy [This message has been edited by kaile (edited 10-07-2000).] |

Ouch...sorry to hear that you're feeling this way, Kaile. Hope things get better. Very expressive poem. I really felt that I could relate. Elizabeth Something sweet, something sort of grandish, sweeps my soul when thou art near... [email protected] |

Yes please attempt again at penning your agony. Your quill is so wonderful anyway, can you imagine the amazing piece that would flow when let out into the openness of freedom? |

Wow! I think you just wrote what every single poet in this forum has felt at one time or another, and some of us for days at a time!! I know, in my case, all I can do is just keep doin' it, and all of a sudden it breaks free. Write to us, kaile.....we'll listen! Follow your dream! |

Kaile, what happened? Why were you feeling lousy? You could've called one of your friends to talk about it. It's better than bottling it up and you couldn't even bring yourself to write about it! That is bad! _,,,^.^,,,_ |
