I hate it when I feel this way,
Wishing all the world will just go away,
Yeah I know its me,
But even that doesn't help me see,
A way to escape this hell
As I drown in a sea of memories...

I think most of my poetry is this sea of memories.. Sweetie they are sometimes my only friend.. that is not a good thing. Now I am trying to focus focus focus.. but it is so hard at times. Go for a walk in a beautiful place.. try to be around children as they sleep as they play.. remember this life is only the beginning for all of us.. This seems to help me most of the time. You are so wonderful and talented.. you have the world and just don't realize it. ..
Be well my friend!

Dearest RD, I know this feeling all too well, but this isn't about me, it's about you.
You feel like you're going to die... but you won't. Your life will go on and one day soon, you'll wake up and think to yourself,"he wasn't the very first thought I had this morning". Time will pass and you'll start to have little glimpses of who he really is. We only see the good when we're in love. The bad things are there, we just overlook them.
When it's time, you'll be over him.
There is no better feeling in the world, than to know it's finally over.
I felt your heartache in this poem. I wish I couldn't feel other peoples pain, but I do.
Your heart is in this piece and it shows.
There's something better in store for you. When you work your way through this...it will come.

Loving thoughts are with you.
Bonnie

How well I know this feeling, the reouble is you just want to wallow in it, and don't want any help. That's the worst of it. Hard to come out of it sometimes. My best to you, and hope it passes soon. Love your poetry!

This poem is excellent, Retta. I love all your poetry that I've read. The feelings that inspired this one could use a pick-me-up. Dear, dear! Go to a dance, go canoeing down a stream, do something exciting to change directions. I know, free advice is worth what you pay.
Best regards,
