Crying

It's not easy to live with mental illness that is untreated...

 

Crying
 
Racing into the rain
Trying to ease my mind
Hoping to wash away the strain
Watching lives get left behind
 
Delusions dictate your life
Rash actions not thought out
Desperate to sell some shadowy lie
Secretiveness to hide what you are about
 
Lying awake at night
Stomach in a knot
Your destruction fills my mind’s sight
Good memories are all forgot
 
Had to accept the way things are
Less than desirable with crisises never stopping
Can’t see into the future very far
Left with frustrations and crying

I appreciate your candidness and your strength. I thank you for helping us to be aware of what you struggle with...to help us understand the fight that many deal with on a daily basis.

That is a great description of the frustration of pain and confusion when it seems impossible to do anything about them. Well written, Liz. Unfortunately, the best way to know how to write about such events is to live through them. I echo John that you show great strength, but please take time to care for yourself. Remember the admonitions, "Be still and know that I am God," and "Hand your troubles to God for Him to work out." Easier said then done, but search for the faith, and you will find it....Jerry

The honesty and directness of telling are unimaginably powerful here, and nothing is denied or pushed under. You show great strength in this fine poem.

Healing in these lines for those who suffer from mental illness and can write about it as powerfully as you do - well done.

Quill therapy with really timed and rhymed song lyrics, Liz...acoustic guitar and chromium strings could pluck this out...the best songs are written from real incidents in life...Remember, Roy Orbison did Crying...be well.

I can certainly empathize with this for lately I seem to be bombarded by one problem after another...just have to hang on thought and hope for the world to eventually slow down and let us off.

"Left with frustrations and crying" tears give relief -and crying is an outlet. Good poems about crying are rare, like this one.
