I Started Thinking - 4. Chapter 4

Hello everyone,
 Sorry for the wait, quite a few things happened since my last post. Anywho, here is the newest installment. I hope you enjoy. :*)

 

Trying not to drown

 

Trying hard not to drown

Feeling like the world is out to break me

I’ve been shaken to the core

Now I worry even more.

 

Trying not to drown

Trying to stay above ground

Therapy is supposed to help

However, I still feel I need more help.

 

Trying not to drown

Feeling like a ticking clock

Knowing when the chime rings, it could be the end of me

Hoping that his plans for me is to continue.

 

Trying not to drown

Trying to hold on

Losing myself as each minute goes by,

For at this moment and in this place, all I can do is…..

 

Try not to drown

 

Now that you have read this latest poem let me know what you think. I do not mind critaziam as long as it is tactful and honest. As I always say,  Have a sweet day.. LMoline:thankyou:

It sounds like you are going through a lot lately.  It can be difficult keeping your head above water, but you seem like a very strong person.  The emotion in this poem came through very clearly. :hug:

Thank you, Gary. This piece was very hard to write, but at the same time it was a necessary release. You are right about life being a challenge and it's not easy to get through.

 

As always thank you for your constant support.

Have a sweet day. Lmoline

This was quite a heartwrenching to read. Feeling like you're trying not to drown sounds like a very painful place to be. I'm very sorry to hear you've been going through a great deal of turmoil and I hope that the help you need comes your way. Sending love, Imloline.

Thank you, Brian, for sending love, it is always nice to know someone cares. Now as for the poem it is a reflection of the emotions that had built up over the last couple of months. Some of the build up was do to my therapist bring up things that I was not and had not dealt with, hence the name of the poem. Although , I guess writing it was my way of surviving all over again. Thank you again for your support,

 

Have a sweet day.. Laura:thankyou:
