This is very beautiful and it rings so true. I often wonder if I actually matter or how others can think I do. Totally feel the overthinking in this and self-hatred for the mistakes of the past. Thank you for writing!

Yes, to be gloomy, we\'re just a mix of chemicals, water, and \'stuff\'. Well, we wish that\'s all a certain glugger was made of. What \'chemicals\' is he made of? Don\'t answer that, of course! lol.

Clever and well worded this poem holds the themes of how much one is worth in the eyes of others or maybe even self given perceptions that are external and from the eyes of someone else. The woven message reads like a piece of patterned cloth wo nicely done. A fave

Well said. Your poem explores themes of alienation, self-worth, and the struggle for acceptance in a society that often marginalizes individuals based on their mental health or past experiences. The poet grapples with feelings of insignificance and the disconnect between external affirmations of worth (“I matter”) and internalized perceptions of being viewed as less than whole or valuable.

Aah Tristan, on initial reading this was the story of a cork which in the bad old days had blocked my access to the bottle\'s contents; then I happened upon the heavy duty comments above and realised I was not in the same league......Better luck next time - Happy New Year...!

The voice that comes to us once in a while that inner whisper. It is haunting and a bit creepy as if familiar but still needing introduction like a friend walking into ones bathroom as you step out of the shower. The voice itself is the knock at the door. The prelude that you don\'t drink and then the introduction as the cork. I have felt that way before. There is something more powerful than not being wanted in not being needed. Well written my friend

A powerful poem speaks from one\'s heart, been their. Your poem revolves around feelings of isolation, fear, and the struggle for self-identity. The poet expresses a sense of being trapped in an emotional or psychological state, feeling disconnected from others while simultaneously yearning for connection and relief. The subject matter touches on themes of anxiety, the pressure to conform to social expectations, and the feeling of being an outsider in one\'s own life.

Everyone has their god, but not everyone\'s god is as good as my god.
I always wondered what Jesus would think of the religious opulence living off his name.
The Mother Teresa\'s of this world is how I see religion in action and should be applauded.
The ones that chap your door and spout their verses. They get the imaginary machine gun or the old-fashioned boot up the ass.

Religion preaches conformity and relies on it. There are those that copy nonconformity just to be in the in crowd and they are worse feigning nonconformity and proclaiming rebellion only to hypocritically be one and the same. A most thought provoking write Tristan

That Batman biscuit image is brilliant, Orchi…exactly the kind of sideways humor that sneaks truth in under the radar. And “he sneaks in, in a thousand ways” might be one of the most accurate lines written today, poem or comment. In fact, we both know it is glugging true! Every. Single. Time. LOL! 🦇🔥✍️🙏

Sunday is not scorched here at the moment, weather-wise! Wassat pic? Someone taken a bite out of a Batman-shaped biscuit? Good thing it wasn\'t a Popeye-shaped biscuit. Doh! He sneaks in, in a thousand ways! heehee.
It\'s the Roman Catholics I can\'t get on with, and their \'antics\' at the Vatican for one thing.

The statement is articulate and accurately represents the reality of HSP. Experiencing it personally allows one to grasp its truth and concur completely. I personally call it ignorance and jealous Well written, Tristan, your poem revolves around the tension between individuality and societal judgment. It critiques the judgmental nature of society, particularly how those who are sensitive and artistic are often misunderstood and labeled as \"evil.\" The subject matter explores themes of conformity, personal authenticity, and the value of embracing one’s unique qualities in a world that often favors uniformity.

Well written, your poem revolves around the themes of isolation, suffering, and societal indifference. You highlight the experience of individuals who are marginalized and rendered invisible by society. Yet the poet delves into the emotional agony of rejection, stigma, and the dehumanizing effects of anonymity and erasure. The poem paints a vivid picture of how society views suffering as a form of entertainment, while simultaneously inflicting pain and neglect upon those who are already suffering.

Overlooked, banished, forgotten, erased. Damnatio memoriae the roman punishment of erasing a person\'s name from history. The worst punishment far worse than a death sentence it is the ultimate death sentence of obliterating one\'s existence. A dark and sad poem my friend.
