We don't talking anymore!

I feel,  we stopped communicating

and really do not talk to each other

anymore!

I feel alone

and abandoned

as well a deserted

by you.

I understand

you are filled

with worry,

anxiety and dread

due to

not being very well.

But neither

am l

very well

also.

I am drowning in misery

and uncertainty

and losing hope

of tomorrow.

Not being good news.

I fear for you.

I fear for myself.

I fear for us both.

We are sinking

and drift and

going our

separate ways.

I wish!

I want!

I need!

Us to be

whole again.

Together as one.

Do not let our illness

pull our part.

Do not let the fear

rule you and control me.

Do not let it command

you and in addition as

me.  destroy us as

well.

Please open up and
communicate and
simply talk

to me!

No wonder we

are falling apart!

The old saying 'a problem shared is a problem halved' may have been based on scientific fact, according to a new study. Researchers have proved that the best way to beat stress is to share your feelings - and sharing with someone in the same situation yields the best results. This is because sharing a threatening situation with a person in a similar emotional state 'buffers individuals from experiencing the heightened levels of stress that typically accompany threat'! Your poetic write highlights the need for such sharing and the need to resolve and face these issues together! Goo d piece of writing … :-)

Thanks Phill, for your insightful and very intersting view and thoughts. And what you said is so very true. We need to open up more and talk to each other. Not just in good times, but more so bad times. Sometimes, it helps to write it down and hand them a letter if you find it hard to speak to them and get it out. And hand it to them. And let them read it when they have the time. And come back to you later. And then sit down and talk. That way. They can share their emotions with you. Not just you telling them. Works both ways.

Its so hard to communicate sometimes when we are so lost in ourselves. Too many times relationships get to the point where we stop loving (verb) each other....we forget, we fear, we lose.

I enjoyed your writing though it made me sad as I can relate only too well.....T

Thank you T, and for your thoughts.

Just talking helps so much..... I feel sometimes we all need is someone to speak... in this age when world is at our finger tips...we seem to be getting lost in our own world of darkness easily....

Insightful review Arda. Bless you and so very true. What you said. Feeling your own darkness makes it so much more harder, to share with others close to you or other wise. It is stepping out of the dark. That is so hard to do. Outwith sharing with others your thoughts and woes.

Sometimes it just takes someone with a good heart and tons of patience to hear us out ... that's what I have learnt.... and someone who doesn't give up on us....:)
