We all need......writing and to express

We all want to hear about

nice things, undying love

romance, perfect summers

day. Great upbeat stories

that make you laugh.

But the reality is bad things do

happen and occur.

From darkness from depression.

People being suicidal and dying.

To bad accidents to children dying.

We as humans should be allowed

to express ourselves.

To get those feelings of hurt, pain

and rejection, sorrow and sadness

out.

And anyone who feels. That is wrong.

All I can say is. You have not  walk in

my shoes or anyone else shoes.

That have suffered and need some

relief and comfort from expressing

themselves outwardly.

And also sometimes. it's the only

form of self-help that can actually

help someone move forward in

their own life.

So never judge someone for having

a bad time. As maybe one say. Sadly

it could be you. Feeling the need

to express yourself in poetry or in

an upsetting tale based on your life.

yep! i agree Dawn ... i read a book on grieving once and some of the advice given is to talk about ones pain and loss ... tell the story over and over as much as is needed .. and when one person decides they have heard it enough.... find someone else and tell them .. we have a wonderful outlet in creative writing don't we!? we tell all of our story in one way or another .. most outside of a confessional form ... i glad you shared this with us Dawn .. its important

You express yourself anyway you want Dawn. If it helps so much the better. I find writing a great release, but I don't write flowers and happy all the time because life isn't like that. Carry on doing what you do in your own sweet way.

Just read this again Dawn. Just want to reaffirm, poetry can't always be upbeat and happy. Poetry reflects life, and at times that can be hell.

Poetry can be anything. Happiness, sadness and wisdom. I like a good story myself. A good writer take the reader away from their life. We need this sometimes. Thank you dear Dawn for sharing the excellent poetry.
