Dread

Christina8

Something whispered in her ear

Suddenly evokes a tear

and she hasn't cried in ages,

It's a mystery to say the least

as to what unleashed the beast

It's stumped the wisest sages.

But it's disappointment she dreads

Would rather do anything instead

Guilt just eats at her soul,

She's supposed to follow the crowd

And their voice is rather loud

Her anxiety is taking a toll.

      Thanks Steve, I appreciate the compliment!

    • BRIAN & ANGELA

      Thanks SISTER for writing the Poem you wanted to write ~ FROM YOUR HEART ~ instead of something LESS melancholy ~ FROM YOUR HEAD. I can empathise because I tend to follow my HEAD and write an INFORMATIVE Poem on New Orleans ~ like I did today ! With ANGELA leaving for New Zealand (over 11,000 miles) in two weeks ~ If I wrote a melancholy Poem it would make you all cry ! God alone knows what I'll write in three weeks time when my ANGEL has FLOWN ! I understand the circumstances which evoked this poem and my PRAYERS are with you until the Time is Right ! Every Blessing ~ Abrazos de tus Hermanos especiales ~ ANGELA & BRIAN @@@@@@@

          Writing from the heart is so important, it shows emotions not thoughts. Your heart is strong and will overcome these anxious times.
