I keep these feelings bottled up For I’m not allowed to speak And if I were to let them loose You’d think that I were weak Bottled up and vacuum sealed Where no one hears me scream To let the feelings drip till dried Seems only a distant dream Then I twist and hear the fizz As my depression starts to sink I drain the thoughts and read the cap “You've just won another drink” [This message has been edited by wayoutwalt (edited 10-21-2001).] |

I hope your emotions/feelings/experiences are eventually able to be aired, & that the top remains on the bottle. I've found writing and reading poetry a really helpful form of therapy, when mixed with professional help! Jon ![]() |

Hey Walt, even though that was a good chuckle at the end, I felt the seriousness behind it. Or is it just me, feeling that way? Liked it lots, either way. Sandra |
