A storm is a brewing and it’s calling my name / a storm is a brewing and it’s all in my brain. The thoughts are a swirling like twister…
I don’t know if this poem makes sense or not, but I had to write it and get it out of my system. You see, my thoughts were beginning to swarm in my head like crazy and wouldn’t stop. It was terrible! I thought I was going into a panic attack. Thought that I was going into one of my raging storms. I couldn’t even see straight, then told myself, maybe if you write what you are feeling right now, it will go away. I tried and tried and finally this is what came out. But, you know what? I’m feeling better now. This is the whacky side of Iris. lol Oh, and I think it has to do with that my husband is on vacation and we haven’t gone nowhere! And to give him some attention, I haven’t really been on the computer, just taking peeks now and then. Ufff. Said it. Got it out. Please no offence Red Bubble. Thanks to you I am writing again and I am hooked.
ever get that sinking feeling when you look in the mirror and something’s not quite perfect?
Was revisiting some old stuff this evening regret and terror and felt like control wanted to join the party.
Here is my place / In this tightly sealed case / Unable to move / Or speak my mind
A poem about what it’s like to live with anxiety.
Original is Pastel on Paper. / One can understand the pain from a sprain, laceration or from a surgical procedure. Can one ever understand or fully comprehend emotional pain, a silent scream that envelopes the core being so much that one can only hold on…in an effort to steady the innate life force? The eyes are those windows into that tortured heart. Also available on a T-Shirt.
Everyone looks at me / It’s my turn / My turn to speak / I open my mouth / My voice is trembling / Everyone listens
Same theme as my last poem, but more about a specific situation I often find myself in.
