Why
Jhe said:
this poem seems so very honest, very self aware ~ my oldest son experienced some of the feelings you describe, including:
\"what I know is wrong feel so right but only at the very moment\"
...that used to freak him out the most, you know, the not knowing why on earth he said or did something he wouldn\'t normally say or do, and not being able to take it back...wondering if he should be on his own all the time just in case.
i know if he read this he would be glad to know someone else can relate, but he\'d also be sad because he\'d have an idea what you\'re going through.
i don\'t think yor heart was dark, i think some part of your psyche was confused or had blown a fuse and whatever else might have caused that it\'s possible that you are just too kind deep inside to cope with all the b#sh#
sometimes people have to switch off to survive ~ it\'s not cold it\'s mega sensitive...
good luck with all your poetry, J

hello , i like you speak of your depression becoming a part of you , like the day and night is to the earth . the only thing i would say in reference to this piece id that the punctuation seems to be lacking , this looks like prose, not a poem , maybe if you layed it out different it may look better , but you seem to express how much it is part of you , and it is so true, it definatley can feel a huge part of us . i hope my constructive criticsm was taken ok :-) it just might look a bit better layed out differently

interesting enjoyable read ... being under the soil would be very dark indeed but being a seed we can make our way on out , maybe into a flower who can see everything clearly .. very nicely done
