day dream

When i think back i see not me, but a young girl. smiles, laughter, hardly any tears. looking for a friend. She has so many. i snap out of it. now it makes no since. i see a girl in pain, heartbreak, fear, no one to run to. i try to remember when it all went wrong. not to young but not to old. stuck in the changes of her body. depressed with the memories i keep locked in my mind. not happy ones. but the ones that i fear will happen again. the harder i think the more it hurts. i go back, back to that happy place. the little girl no more then Four years old. Smiling, playing , laughing. why does this happen. why me, why do i do this to myself.

so sad

I find this poem to really move me. It has a lot of heart. Aside from a few grammatical errors I think it was great Pat

the question to ask to improve this poem

is why did you did this to yourself, not who did this to you, I congratulate you on that. Smart. Who and how made you blame yourself for yourself? That is the question to seek for. now it makes no since. now it makes no sense [or did you mean the pun on since?"] Cheers, Jess, Reprehensibly irrepressible,
