L. B. Mek said:

such vivid imagery
and good use of repetition
to portray that sense of incessant
unwanted, presence
alluring to its psychological, effects
that accompany the easily, visible
physical..
(a really well executed, poem
thanks for sharing
I\'m so sorry for your struggles
and I hope they find a cure soon)
thanks for sharing
a brave write, since
as a model
this must be harder on you
as it seems to have robbed you
of a tangible, career path or dream

I liked your poem a lot. You beautifully worded your pain, experience, and struggle with psoriasis. Good luck with everything that you wish to accomplish in life. You’re strong and unstoppable and can accomplish anything ❤️

A very sad emotive write Evangaline but one day that pillow will be renewed and real love will come to share that pillow with you.

Pillow talks.
dusk arising said:

Will she grow into a person behind a painted mask of attraction displaying \'I want your attention\' to many a poor suitor? Or retain her dignity and place her personal integrity forefront to the world.

A choice overlooked by so many it appears from the state of western society.

Doggerel Dave said:

Category: Sad ?
More than sad it\'s bloody awful.
A well constructed piece it is, but what else? Imaginative statement? Something you\'ve witnessed? experienced? Can\'t blame you if you don\'t wish to answer, particularly the last, but it gives me the horrors, to be quite honest - even if, as I am, aware that such situations do exist.
More context please.
But above all else, what am I supposed to do?
For you, If this comes within the bounds of your personal experience, please ensure the appropriate authorities or support are available to you or the subject of this piece.

Your tree deserves to grow
L. B. Mek said:

I too, cling to whatever perch my life grants me to rest upon, from all the toiling and wishful planning, while other\'s - seemingly unaware of what promise gravity - awaits to greet with, simply rush-on by - lost: in their dreams of pinnacle vantages...
a contemplative write, wonderfully worded dear Poet

Careful.... there\'s always someone looking for a fallen apple hoping to bake a pie on the cheap.

....but, prince in frogs clothing, he could be you saviour.

Welcome to 2020
Poetic Dan said:

Wow....beautifully done but remember there will always be dark & light it all depends on what we wish to focus on.

Ended so magnificently, with not many wish to have an honest open conversation...

Inspirational stuff!
Keep up the write

Welcome to 2020
FredPeyer said:

Another very good poem EF, right from the heart with a lot of truth in it. I love the line \'An instagrammable lover\'. You made up a great word here. I might even steal it from you for one of my future scribbles.
You are right, I do feel sorry for my grandchildren and do hope the world will become a better place. And poems like this will help draw attention to these problems. Well done!

I can understand why it might be difficult to find for many today, but is there nothing you can identify as funny, amusing, optimistic?

heatherbee said:

Felt such sadness for your friend iv had friends in abusive marriages physical and mentally and it\'s so hard for them to see themselves as a victim it\'s just a relationship and we as a society excuse these people by not speaking of it. So well done you lovely words powerful.

Stay safe, your words are haunting but so true as I have also suffered from depression. I hope you get some peace and a better mindset.

Depression is a terrible thing, EF. My wife has been fighting it for many years. I don\'t know what is best, but Jerry is right, you may get better if you get help.

Jerry Reynolds said:

Well-written poem EF.
I am not qualified to treat you, however, I know from experience depression can be challenging. If it is a chemical imbalance in your body there are meds for it. If not you will need therapy. There is help. Stay Safe dear heart.

Trigger warning Eating Disorder
Doggerel Dave said:

That’s a lucid description of a disorder which to many (including to some extent, me) is puzzling. Definitely makes the subtleties clearer.
Felt a great lift at the end, where hope appeared as you have apparently found a way out.
Good luck for the future.

L. B. Mek said:

you write on meaningful and important subjects that are socially pertinent, though may not be experienced by society\'s majority,
yet your words read relatable with how much you choose to divulge of your own testimony or other\'s... thanks for sharing your wonderful talent and helping readers like me evolve, to become a little less ignorant...
another great write!

When will you care
L. B. Mek said:

indeed, how insightfully you unfurl the hypocrisy within a society that \'chimes\' to our young lady\'s - \'in the making\':
\'oh gal, he is only pulling your hair
cause\' he like ya...
don\'t mind him none
a smile is all he asking for...\'
then a decade later, they berate those same \'young ladies\'
with their judgemental words:
\'\'gal, why you \'let him\'
treat you - like that?
doncha kow - no better...\'\'
and they - are the wise words of the \'fairer sex\',
one can only guess at how distorted an interpretation of \'attraction\' the \'other side\' has developed...
still, no excuses: \'some\' men can make dirt look like gold dust,
but please, know - a lot
of \'good raw earth\', is trampled on
by those same women, who can\'t see those fertile grounds
waiting patiently by their side, bored by the ease of accessibility and overzealous willingness,
choosing instead - to tame, those wild \'mustang\' key holders and their promise of a \'thrill\' ride...

forgive me for my uninvited sermon of a comment, I was inspired by your insightfully - well articulated depiction of a usually emotion addled subject...
a brilliant write!
thanks for sharing dear Poet

Never mind Instagram models. They\'re vain and stupid. Let\'s not copy them. They get enough vain publicity anyway.
I suspect the human frame was never suited to be a size 4.
Hope you find the way through this :)

FredPeyer said:

Well written ef, unfortunately there are many relationships where one partner has to endure much and is not able to leave for whatever reason. But mental and/or physical abuse is plainly wrong.

dusk arising said:

Why did she choose to be with such a shmuck? Or was she forced into it at gunpoint or something. Hope she learns her lesson.
