    • We are made the way we are supposed to be. I understand though

    • I get it beautiful poetess if they didn’t think that there would be no reason for constant reinforcement reminds me of me with my schizophrenia great write just be you you can’t be anyone else ❤️

    • That’s kind of weird isn’t it. It’s like they’re trying to convince you of something before you ask. lol

    • Powerful and poignant.

    • We are born into circumstances. You control how those circumstances affect you. They may burden you. They may show you the right path for
      you. Some people live a glorious life while others struggle to survive. So far, I have survived! I have been broken and I have pieced myself back together. I have taken many wrong roads. I have been very lost at times. Be yourself always.

    A Poem

      A Poem   oo0oo   Dream like, innuendo breathes deep moving slowly in a heart beat. And then you said, ‘Hi’. Reality flowed quickly from a dream.   What is a dream but a shadow roaming the mind. Illusive, like fire in a red dress dancing bare foot to music only you...

    • This is sweet with a touch of trouble. “Red Dress” Nice

    • Hi Curt,

      I really enjoyed this – it has such a dreamy, floating quality, I love how it moves from the soft, floating imagery of dreams into the sudden jolt of reality. “And then you said,” ‘Hi.’” The image of a dream as “fire in a red dress dancing barefoot” is striking and memorable. It feels like a brief, beautiful moment where fantasy and reality touch. Dreams inspire me. This piece resonates with me

      • Exactly RomaJ. Thank you. If I remember correctly, this dream woke me up. Unfortunately, there was no “reality” of her dancing in a red dress, barefoot or otherwise. Oh well. Dreams do inspire. It inspired this poem. Thanks again for your kind words and visit.

    • This is somewhat like Déjà vu to me. Something kind of jolts you, but in a way, you’ve felt it before.

      • To be honest, I was roaming through some of my notebooks and found this poem. So in one sense, yes, there was some Deja vu involved. But it was a dream I had back then (2009) that found its way on paper.

        Thank you, Tim, for your comment and perspective on this poem.

    Winter sunset in my eyes, rays of golden hues rage on, pale-white and a black sky, we all need darkness to see the stars.

    Hell and Peace

    Dear psychosis, your unending season is now the winter of MY discontent! Lowly your voice howls within the wintry confines of my mind. Thickly your veil covers my eyes and I feel a coexistence between Hell, and peace. But what is reality?   The once-lived serenity of...

    Daliesque Disorder

    Bizarre delusions painted upon my life’s canvas.   Psychosis dripping with striking dreaminess.   Amidst wispy clouds loom romantic castles.   A bodiless poet with fleshly hands   scribing wild, surrealistic thoughts.   Brushing hallucinations within a utopian mind.
