Weak and alone
Goldfinch60 said:
That loneliness can be helped by writing words as it does for many of us.
May the troubles of your life be behind you and your words show you the way forward into a new life.

Degradation of words

Language is yours and mine platform to unwind our thoughts into poetry. But we do not own it. Nor control it. Whereas i share your concerns for ever encroaching \'grunt speak\' type english and do find certain accents abraisive - wasn\'t it ever so?
Language is just a channel by which we communicate and there have always been better and lesser communicators. Blame - if it should fall anywhere - should be leveled upon our falling educational standards here in U.K.
Your point is well made and applauded.

Painful realization of actuality, for now is the time to live for yourself for there are many if not most that will empathize with you.

Time comes to us when we are ready to reflect upon the meaning of it all. Seems you are wondering through this now. Hopefully you have a faith to secure you.
However, there are many who have survived what you are going through these days and they will welcome you with warmth and understanding.... as you will to them. For there is something to be said for the camaraderie of survivors. Life changes, as do we.

A first love story
Tamara Beryl Latham - The Poet said:
You\'ve captured, with humor, the awkwardness involved with one\'s first love. The cadence and images are great. I enjoyed it. :)

A good morning with depression
sylviasearcher said:
You have captured the silent suffering painfully well.
There is such stigma still around mental health.
Like you and others my only source of comfort is poetry.
But now I have two secrets the world would scorn me for!

Tamara Beryl Latham - The Poet said:
Your words penetrate the depths of the hearts of your readers.
I\'m hopeful you are only writing of this downward abyss, instead of living that reality.
A pleasure to read. Keep posting!

I totally agree with you. It\'s a sad situation even where I\'m from in America where \"like\" is every 4th word or less. I\'m in my 30\'s but all my friends are much older. Loved the write!

Great poem! As one who has been there, you pretty much hit the nail on the head! Well, not pretty much, you did!! \"Unending torment\" Fantastic words for such a thing as depression.

Very good and very true write. I too do not understand what is happening to the English Language.
I have two issues with your poem
1 - The first line should have a like at the end of it, like.
2 - I would like to think that I could have a civilised conversation with you and I am only 70.
Welcome to MPS Gogeta.

WELCOME \'GOGETA\' (like the name !) ~ Thanks for your first Poem. I welcome the point you are making ! This misuse of the King\'s English is not only the spoken word but the written word as well. MODERN POETRY lacks Rhyme ~ Rhythm ~ Grammar and Reason and there are many examples on MPS ! Michael Edwards and I do try to encourage Classical Poetry like Sonnets ~ Acrostics ~ Vilanelles ~ Haiku etc and there are some excellent Poets on MPS like FAY and Maxine etc. The reason for \'crude speak\' is manifold ! In the UK English Language & Literature is badly taught ~ Texting destroys Language and the language on TV is hardly the King\'s English. Dress ~ Manners & Language are all victims of the 21st Century casualness ! I agree with you about the 75+ they retain courtesies of manners ~ speech and language ~ largely missing in today\'s society, I\'m 35. Thanks for caring and sharing (you know what I mean !!!!!!) more please. Please check my site which I share with my Fiancee (ANGELA ~ 30) who is in New Zealand on Work exchange until October 2019 ! Yours Poetically BRIAN (UK) The way MPS works is: We read & comment on each others POETRY and you can build up a cohort of MPS Friends, OK.

I wish I knew the answer. The standards are also falling among even those who should (and surely do) know better like News readers for example. I have only just heard on the BBC a reporter saying \'The Local Council are....\' - I get really cross. Love the poem.
