Re: Poem

Re: Poem

For everyone: I first started seeing my psychiatrist in 1998. I wrote this poem about him and therapy twenty-five years ago. As you can see, I didn't trust him at the beginning. I know now that he did and doe's care. I hope someone can relate and it's not too negative for here!

@REDLINEZ750 Here's another one. Are you okay? I'm being brave by putting it up!

Therapist

Do you laugh behind my back?

I doubt that you care less

How do you look upon my life?

Pathetic, I would guess

Did you ever give a thought

until I walk on through?

Or am I just another one

waiting patiently in queue?

You hide behind your doctor's mask

I know that's it's not you

I wonder what you're really like

Is what I see all true?

I want to trust and believe in you

But I can't believe you care

You keep your distance emotionally

and personally, never share

I am depressed and miserable

I feel unstable too

Are you glad when time is up

I wish I really knew

I'm so angry, I've no control

You won't open up to me

You have the power, I'm vulnerable

I hate the pain, you see

I sit with this every week

and I'm still compelled to come

My need for love is crushing me

I'm here for just a crumb

Does my pain amuse you so?

Is that behind your smile?

I want control that you won't give

I need to feel worthwhile

I have failed in my eyes

and it brings up all the past

Not wanted and unlovable

It's the role I have been cast

I love and hate you passionately

You hold some king of spell

Damn you for your ethics, [named removed by moderator]

But thank you too, as well

I'm feeling now, you wanted that

Though I can't say I'm impressed

I have to trust what you want

Is to see me at my best!

'Nothing' ever works smoothly, especially when it's important or you're in a hurry! I'd be a nervous wreck by now. I kinda am. 😆

Here's one I found for you from 1995 @REDLINEZ750 I hope I've learnt something in 30 years! 😉💛

FRIENDSHIP

Friendship is sharing ideas and thoughts

Not always agreeing but ready to hear

Supportive and loyal through times that are rough

Not always together but forever near

Friendship is caring about the other

Looks to be kind and thoughtful each day

Tries to understand the feelings of another

Continues to love when things aren't their way

A friend is someone you can always trust

Someone who will never lie

Always looking to lift you up

It's something money can't buy

A friend, you look forward to seeing

Sometimes needing time apart

Someone to laugh and cry with

A connection from the heart

A friend you feel comfortable being with

Honest, no front on show

Someone you don't hide your feelings from

Someone you're proud to know

Friendship develops with trust and care

Just like a flower, it grows

What goes in is what comes out

Like planting seeds that we sow

A friend is special, like a precious stone

Despite rough edges each angel we turn

So rare, it must be appreciated

Lord, to be a friend, I want to learn

1995

Re: Poem

my heart at home friend i think you have leaerned to nail it as that is exactly how you are seen and felt by myself and others on here. im sorry if your tag hasnt highlighted as it doesnt look blue and i have no mmouse on this laptop they have let me use to ground myself due to an intake of people being a trigger for my hypervigilance and i was noticeably unsettled,

i will not have time to adress all the supportive wishes from each person indivivdually yet so i saw this was 24min old and hoped you would see i read it i enjoyed it and i felt you in it

i cant wait to put visual art to that if yiou allow me to i will make it something as special as the thoughts expressed in words.

its my last night here al ready wow 6 days feels like only yestrday i had my pooky socks on my feet while i was on forum hahaha

pooks is pookinating on fine apart from a random defication inside the land ladys shoe and some howling at night but plenty are naking sure he gets his walk at night and carried across the streets so he learns never step on the road like i always teaxh him in the hope if he ever gets out it could be what saves him getting hit.

his back legs are pinned from a hit and run before i took him from previous owners not that it slows him down defying gravity in zoomies running the length of the bed on its side lilttle lion.

how are you again i dont have time to catch up im sorry if something your struggling with isnt being attended to by recogninition i have close to 60 notifications but mostly are supports im sure so button issue must be supported hahaha

i do hope your well and your thought of daily

pretty sure i get my phone back in morning i may need to get a telstra sim card which will be done, im just ducking over to my other thread for now as its easier for me to say hi to rest of family in one go with limited time and im soryy if tag isnt working as its not blue and i have no mouse to scroll down down to box @heartathome

@heartathome @Bunniekins @Chasingsunsets guess who figured out what to do without a mouse

Re: Poem

Hello, my beautiful friend. I'm so glad to 'see' you @REDLINEZ750 ! I was so excited my legs bounced up and down while I called out your name! 😂 The new intakes are probably just as scared of you and the whole idea of drying out.

You have to be a part of the visual art to the poem, Friendship; It has to be created by both of us. I want Pooky in there as well.

I'm so glad Pooky's getting looked after so well! I've been thinking about him. I saw my son's dog, Polly, today. She's on a diet but got some of mum's fish wrap. Ha ha

It was good to see my son with a smile on his face. He's out of psychosis and I have no idea what he's up to! Just the way I like it. 💛
