The world we live in has been insane for centuries now. Some persevere and some don't. Walk in the shoes God gave you and make your path make sense. You'll win.

Just knowing there is a safe place to go helps hold off the worry yet a few days rest might do you good. On days like that I try to stay away from the mirror till I show back up. I do understand that feeling. You know we're here, Lady J

What will become of you? You will become stronger and more empowered.
Allow this to make you better, not bitter and you will see that good comes from tribulations. Pray for her and pray for yourself and we will pray for the both of you.
Excellent write.

I look in the mirror each day and see,
More of it and less of me.
Powerful lines which can not be written by an insane mind. You are still as perfect as every sane person; patience is the pill you need to take now. Thanks for this beautiful but sad offering

I've been in a place so dark I thought the light would never again penetrate, it will Walt. I'm so sorry anyone has to experience this especially someone as special as you. Others can only hurt us if we allow them the power, take your power back.

I think we have all seen it, from time to time, in our lives, and I think we have to constantly fight it off and get our grip back, or it will get us all.

You make me shiver with this stark poem of affliction. I hope you get a grip ,Walt!Realize it is no time for who is at fault games... You alone are in charge of your choices,and with God's help you can make the right one and move on to a future, which may be far greater than the past if you just give it a chance.Patience is the key...
Superb poem!

Your friends will care for you, and love you. Insanity will not take you from us my friend.

You have such a way with words Walt. But we, your fan club, not let you go. There are too many more writes for you to do. So damn the torpedos and full steam ahead.
