THANKS KATY ~ Without the Shedding of Blood there can be no remission from pain. This is the MANTRA I hear from many self~harmers ~ The release justifies the Danger ! There are so so many things we inflict on ourselves because of the ecstasy that follows the agony. I council a lot of Young People (aged 16 -25) and I know theses things do pass ! Thinking of you KATY and praying that all these things really are in the past ~ AMEN Hugs ~ BRIAN Please check my Poem ~ Thanks B

Katy, I do hope the title is accurate!
Good writing, I could feel the emotion, but also the hurt and the cry for help.

GRACIAS KATY ~ beautifully expressed ! I have tasted the AGONY & ECSTASY (The UPS & DOWNS !) of Love ~over the past 16 years and I am slightly wiser for each close encounter ! As a MAN my philosophy is always \"Better to have Loved and Lost ~ than never to have Loved at all ~ Abrazos BRIAN

Games. By:Katy Alvarez
Gary Edward Geraci said:

Oh those fickle emotions! Always coming and going with the right ones leaving early and the wrongs hanging out and staying late. Your poem describes a game we indeed need to figure so that we start winning at it more times than we lose at it. If you are writing for a friend or loved one, please point them to the wonderful resources found at NAMI...Thanks for your inaugural poem.

WELCOME KATY ~ Thanks for your first poem ~ Elegantly penned but with a very sad (but all too common) message. We all wish people would pleasure us and play with our HAPPINESS ~ but NO ~ it is our anxieties they chose to focus on ! In my experience and as a Student (16 to 30) Counselor ~ Depression always seems to override Happiness so that is what people see and focus on ~ whereas inside we only want to be pleasured. I trust you will have many Good Days when your depression will be suppressed by your HAPPINESS. Thanks for sharing ~ every Blessing ~ BRIAN (UK). Please check my poems ~ Thanks B
