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!

@REDLINEZ750 I can see the tunnel now! Do you want to fade the colour in the back ground and see what it looks like. Can we get darker around the outside?

Re: Poem

Good morning @REDLINEZ750 I can't visualise it. Can you show me a couple of examples? Are they easy to do? I still like the fire. I of thinking of more darkness and a small light because she came from a darkened room and we started there. It took her some time to leave the room. I just left the door open so there was some light. Can you put a feral looking kid in a corner of a darkened room, in chains? There are so many choices, I can't decide! I'm a very indecisive person!! I'm glad you enjoy doing it! I enjoy seeing what you can do! 🤗 What's happening for you today? I'm volunteering this morning at the Opp shop but have a free afternoon.

Re: Poem

Can you put a bright light at the end of the path instead of the forest? I think the chain is a little too big for the child, so I'd take that off or make it a lot smaller. Like a small detail. What do you think? Am I asking too much? I don't want you to think I'm a pain in the butt and wish you'd never started! 😁 I am a bit of a perfectionist and indecisive! Sorry I didn't mention that before! 😄 It's a part of my OCD and parental encouragement as a child. 😉 I love what you're doing for me! It's very special. Thank you @REDLINEZ750 🤩 You rock!

Re: Poem

Re: Poem

It's pretty cool what you can do @REDLINEZ750 ! I love the girl in rags because that's how I found her! Can the woman be dressed in clothes as well. It certainly wasn't an angel coming to get her. 😉 I felt frightened, distressed and ashamed. I felt 'pity' for her, although I hate that word. There was only a little bit of light coming from the doorway, but I prefer a path to a door unless, maybe if the door was on top of the page with some light coming through it. That would make the background pretty dark, but maybe it could work. Just a thought. I still like the fire one as well! Can I have a look at the fire one with a light instead of the forest. I don't get trees like that around here. 😁🤗

Re: Poem

You also mentioned a barren landscape instead for background and could make it a wild storm setting, that it gives more range for you to mix elements or bottom of a well all sound really good! I'd like to see them all. I think that you're giving me too many options because I can't decide on one thing or another. It's like shopping. It's so hard to make decisions. I do love to see what you can do, though! Keep going, brother! 🌻🤗
