A Promise Broken

December 29th 2008 23:54
This poem is about the way my anxiety
sometimes, takes control of my life.And
keeps me from clearly seeing the the world around.
For, awhile, I feel like I could just give up.Or
like, I've not, a chance, at accomplishing my
goals.Kind of like, I am breaking a promise to myself.
But, I know, that as, sure as, I
have this evil, cloud right now.It will,
go away, sooner or later.

A Promise Broken

I see those eyes, peeking at me
from both sides.
As, I attempt to make truth,
of my desires.
And yet, within all this confusion
that I now lie.
A bitter delusion
has claimed my time.
Therefore, I am blind to the
understanding, of a single
rhyme.Therefore, the
pages oft, I'd written on
exist, no more.
And words, sworn
of promise to thine self
have been shattered.
But, give up,
one might ask?
And, I, to them reply
perhaps, for today,
but, not eternally.
A promise made, is broken
but, left intact, is the dream.

In need of help with my blogs & posts

December 16th 2008 03:52
This is really confusing, I can't seem to link my blogs to my posts,
or posts, to my blog.I can see that it's supposed to be blog name / title,
but can't figure out how to fix it.Also, can I change the title of my blog =
I could have written a book on depression, to Depression Grew? It is
a lot shorter. Thanks, Jan

A Tiny Piece Each Day

December 8th 2008 15:49
I originally wrote this because, verbal abuse is something
that makes a person feel worthless and the words seem to haunt
or torture, until you actually believe their meanings

Not Strong Enough To Walk Away

November 22nd 2008 22:27
Mental Illness, and abuse,
kept me in a situation where I did not want to be.
This is a poem for my son. It is an apology for being weak

Sometimes,when depression hits a person,
the world becomes a dark and confusing place.
Strength once found within is lost

A person can only take so much in life.On this particular day,
my limit was reached. My husband, I believe, is Bipolar
and can get verbally abusive at times.Usually

Paragraph 18,Lost To Depression

November 13th 2008 18:43
It is not a place to lose ones self no doubt.Kind of like falling into a huge hole and discovering, there is no way out.I don't think I will ever find the path, but others have.
And it does leave just a bit of hope for me.Until that day arrives, I am lost to its control.This poem is how I feel when it removes itself, for at most, a day.Only to return in full force,
taking what control, I thought I'd gained

on The disease that steals your life!

November 14th 2008 23:19
I feel terrible for anyone who has this awful
disease.. I wrote a poem, a long time ago about
President Ronald Regan, when I learned he had it.

My, how the days have changed.
For you, there is no past nor future
merely the present remains.

You do not know,
that years ago, you were a president.
And tomorrow,
you won't remember just how today was spent.

But we'll not dwell on tomorrows, nor even yesterdays
we'll simply thank god, for giving us
your presence, for the present day..

Illness of any form is my weakness.
I can't stand to see someone suffer.
Thank you, for giving advice on this subject.

on Hiding your pain behind a mask

November 4th 2008 12:38
I know what you mean, I had a really bad case of
them.They started at 15, years old.I think most people
who have not had one, just don't understand how
miserable life can be. I hope your pain, goes away
so, you don't have to hide from life anymore.
