Hello @ENKELI
Thankyou so much for such a brave & compassionate reply. Thankyou for saying you loved my poem. Looking back, I have hated it the last few days. I had so much shame for posting it. Today, I had resigned myself to 'we live, make mistakes, we learn better for next time.'
Now - my perspective has changed again, thanks to you! I think, you could read between the lines & understand the intent.
I think I could write a much better poem.
I think the intent was perfect - it was about not feeling like I was small & needed to please anyone. That people would accept me as I am. Without a mask. It takes so much of my energy to be what I think others want. I have terrible believing that anyone could accept me for me ... That I didn't have to TRY !!???
I absolutely love your reply. I love that you have given me knowledge of your name. I agree, it is a beautiful word. Atypical.

It sounds so pretty.
You write beautifully. I love your awareness & explanation of the fragility human experience.
I was also picturing those mosaic pots as I was reading.

I think it is mature & wise to have awareness & acknowledge that more often than not we are left alone. This is so difficult to accept.
I have lots of anger regarding feelings, actual real life , incomprehensible, neglect. I think it has made me hyper - caring (at the expense of myself) - so many contributing factors, as to why, I put others first.
That feeling of wanting to protect - I don't want anyone to go thru what I have.
I need to learn how to direct this overpowering intent with greater efficacy.
I am happy to read you are enjoying forums.
Thankyou for beautiful reply
