My Truth

[Roses]

This is my third attempt to write a poem -

To help me feel better,

To help me express myself,

To help me want to live.

You know what, it doesn't much help -

Me feel better,

Me express myself,

Or make me want to live.

In fact I don't even want to -

Feel better,

Express myself,

Or live.

This is my truth. Where do I go from here?

[Rael]

this is the truth you hold for the time being. its a different one to what you have had when you have felt better, and a different one to what you will have when you feel better this time. the truth right now for you is ruled by the bad thoughts, by what they say directly and by what it means to have them so strongly. strong though they might be, it does not mean they are forever.
