Absolutely heartfelt and beautiful. The confusion we have after losing someone we love and looked up to is almost surreal. This made me think of my Grandfather, which I wrote a poem \"to\" .. maybe he heard the words as they spoke from the heart. \'Goodbye Papa\' https://mypoeticside.com/show-poem-61093 was my way of saying goodbye but do we really?

Chaos
L. B. Mek said:

in the word of Tom Cruise, you had me at:
\'serenity, my dear
i long for us to meet\'

and by the time I landed with a thud at:
\'at its core it feels like shards of glass
grazing over your skin just enough to hurt
but not enough to bleed
just barely bearable
to the shallow eye it is disguised as cotton
the real cotton, is serenity
it lay at the bottom of a creek that you must fall thousands of feet through chaos just to reach\'
your write
was bagged n tagged into my favourites bag...

truly an immersive write you have penned here, wonderful demonstration of your natural talent for flow and insightful commentary

Amen to that! I love your style!

As sad as it is I honestly think so many people our age (myself included) are made to put up with this sort of stuff. I particularly liked the line about life being an \'unsolvable puzzle\'! Most of us also seem to be awful about mentioning this stuff in person, so poems like this can be a really powerful tool :)

Keep writing.

WOW CAIT ~ ARE YOU TELLING US PORKIES ? Your profile looks so trim. I hate STICKS and size ZERO ~ I like my Ladies to be UK 16 at least ~ Cuddly ~ Cute ~ Happy and not slaves to fashion or what it dictates. Poetry is fun and it\'s good to have a good poetic rant. You are beautiful and smart (read the comments !) and we all LOVE YOU ~ Hugs ~ BRIAN

Great poem.. I love that style! I understand completely where you\'re coming from with the depression and anxiety wearing fake smiles like a style. I gotcha. Great job I can feel it. And looking at your profile pic.. I disagree with the ugly and gross repulsive at most line.

WELCOME CAITDEU ~ Thanks for your first poem it is excellent. ! It throbs with Rhyme & Rhythm in its structure and Passion and Angst in its content. I am pleased you have got so much positive feedback and that you found it cathartic. MPS is a very empathetic site and you will make lots of Friends and read some excellent poetry ~ Thanks for caring and sharing ~ Your Friend BRIAN (UK)

you say this is your first write if that\'s true I have no doubt, you should keep on writing and get those feeling out.
Live is worth the living but sometimes it\'s not so clear ask your God to help you eliminate
your fear. ww

I like it... it has a flow and conveys your thoughts, feelings, and emotions clearly. Follow your feeling and write, then edit, then write, then edit... write, and write some more... I liked your poem, very sad...but it has a message.
