Around others

Caring dove

Sometimes you can feel like a flower 

struggling to connect 

or without many words from others 

you can feel like a flower , sighing 

no words appear 

lost for words 


a sense of divide lingers 

like the green grass from the blue sky 

or a flower removed from the moon 

 

distanced 

distant 

different 

feeling like your in your own world 

at a distance 

 

Wishing to feel you can connect

    Oh that is quite the metaphor. It can be frightful to imagine what ‘cut flowers’ could represent. But perhaps that’s reading a bit far.

    • Caring dove

      I just mean .. feeling a distance from people . Yeah it’s just how I’ve been feeling tiday .. distant from myself and from others . I sometimes get the feeling that o kind of invisible around people ..

        That sense of isolation and solitude. Very nicely written

        • Caring dove

          Thankyou ) yeah I think it was probably my dissociation , aswell as people not taking much notice earlier .. and missing people .

          Thanks for the kind comment

            Dear Caring dove, there is a real vulnerability in your words. Flowers are delicate. I felt a sense of isolation here. Hope you feel better soon.

              Thankyou Cassie ) yeah sometimes I feel a sense of feeling ‘ small and even a bit awkward and shy around people sometimes . Sometimes I can also find it hard to talk to people if I feel dissociated

              It’s difficult when we feel we can’t connect to the people around us .. for whatever reason
