Lumpy Oatmeal makes me Crazy!

I deny
the lump in my throat
and the hurt in my heart.
I deny
that tears well
behind my eyes
I deny
that I can be hurt
and my soul bleeds
I deny
that I can't handle
this any more
I deny
that I need you
and that I miss you
I am in denial

Now, ain't that the truth!  To not realize that would be the ultimate denial.

Thank you all.  I really do love the responses in PiP.  When I am upset, I throw words on my computer screen rather than dishes.  I was a bit angry when I wrote this, but we have recovered nicely.

I think denial is necessary. Though it doesn't make the pain go away, it often puts it off until you are ready to handle it. I'm right there with you at this point.

That's an awesome poem and I have read it over and over but I can't find anything wrong with it that I should comment on.  Keep up the good writing. -Potatobunny

Sometimes denial is but a bandaid...
and we are the only ones
who know when
to rip it off.

Well done!
