Ragdoll

You're a ragdoll ripping at the seams


Arms and legs losing stuffing


As your head bobs back and forth


Between moods.


The fire of mania


And the dark sludge of depression


Is turning your insides to tar


And as it is absorbed into


Your soft cotton skin


You're spitting out words


Of hate


Then love


Words of insanity


Can you ever get to hope?

I've ridden on that emotional rollercoaster a time or two myself so I know how rough it can be and how emotionally drained it can leave you. However as you say the ride comes to a stop sooner or later.

Well as Sue says this is a terrible swing to be on and sometimes I think that it happens to me but I put that in my background a while back and hope that it does not come out again.

this is a terrible seesaw to be on, as many of us are aware...but there is hope...somewhere

She Intrigues Me, Revelations Of Love by Jon Willey

If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
