say it like ya mean it why dont ya
this reads more like self loathing in its own write , rather than just depression...
Of course not liking or loving oneself often also goes hand in hand with depression...
and a whole heap of other affective disorders.. Your words here feel like you are trying desperately to beat a black cloud with a blunt instrument...
Now from an analytical perspective.. it would be far too easy to arrive at the conclusion you see yourself as both the blunt instrument and black cloud.....
Whereas I think that is bollocks... You are a very talented writer who needs to learn how to format poetry such as this to make it sit better on the page...... My rant is over... sheesh, do I love the odd rant..... Neville

These words seem to tell an almost complete story... the bit that is missing, at least in my mind.. is the satisfactory conclusion to the take... having said that, or rather felt that.. it would be very easy to accept the ending as poetically stated.... I just reckon your poem begs the reader to arrive at their own conclusion... and that my friend is one of the hallmarks of a good poet.....

Oh this is so beautifully rhymed and so appealing in texture and eloquence - never say you are not suited to poems of love my friend. A delightful read.

A fear which surely haunts all womankind expressed here. Vibrant, tragic, deathly.

In trying to avoid platitudes, I am presently struggling to find words that might go some way to describe just how good this particular poem is.... Neville

Neville said:
I found myself having to read these words through slower than I initially wanted to... because my tongue kind of ripped over itself.... not sure whether I explained that very well.. it is certainly not a criticism .. I found that when I took more time, they flowed better in my head.... which probably says more about my head than anything else... maybe..... Neville

I imagine you are not a witch, but neither are ya fucking chaste... well constructed Sylviasearcher and with an unexpected but equally powerful and necessary conclusion..... Neville

Thanks for enjoying it. Endings are hard. I guess there’s a poem in that notion...

As the others have said, this is great stuff! I loved it.
Also, I have the same problem with ending my works. It is so much easier to continue adding to the moment of inspiration, and to coherently wrap it all up in a couple of sentences can be a real challenge. You succeeded with a very nice conclusion.

A well woven work - and Neville is right - you do melancholy so well - not a case of being better but of being just as good.
