Wanting to belong

How do you think it feels?

Curled up in a ball
Wondering about it all
How long do I call
And here nothing at all

Tears… oh so many tears
Does anyone care how much I fear
all these years
all the one way mirrors

Do I dismiss the ache inside my soul
And blame it on this curse of women
Thank you eve for the toll of emotions

I don’t even care if this rhymes any more.
I just want to paint a picture of this pain
But really all who reads this blog
is pretty aware of this sickening pain

She cries alone

If you saw me now…
My bloodshot green eyes
now brightened
When the tears fall
their color glows
in the pain and sorrow of the
overwhelming reminders
that alone seems to be my place
in this fallen world

Mascaraed tear trails down my pale face
My hair tied back in a messy bun
And I lie here curled up in a ball
trying to stop thinking how this won’t last forever

Sick of being lonely

BoredWhat does one do when she is bored out of her mind and sick of watching TV and has no motivation to clean. Being alone is awful.

Is it wrong of me to want human connection??? I don’t want to type or text. I just want my life back. I don’t want to PMS and feel what I feel and have it intensified. I miss my kids this weekend and wishing I could be at a swim meet watching my step daughter at State.

My depression is getting better but isolation feeds it… Isolation and PMS and boardom not good for one who is depresses.
Headache please get better!

Why does God want me to be alone so much?

The Yellow Dress

Daddy bought her a beautiful birthday dress.
She twilled about in the summer’s breeze
singing and dancing amongst the trees.
Fields of flowers and butterflies caressed
as the summer day progressed.

This day was not what was thought to poses
It’s time to confess…
to address…

The darkness of that dress.

……………………..

…………….

A time came when her
pale yellow dress
became forever imprinted
forever in a mess.
Where memories of an eager birthday girl
suddenly digressed.
The day faded
and night became an unforeseen affair.

Ill-treated.
Eyes sealed tight
there is no might
no remaining fight
tonight… there is no light

She closes her weary eyes tight
struggling her way back
there she sees her field
her butterflies yield
hope is reviled.

………………………………

An innovative friend is born
as her heart is being torn
darkness had been enthroned
in a world that has been loaned
beauty is envisioned
yet evil has been gathered
Their nothing left to fathom

The sky above now painted gray
take me away
take back my wish I pray
I plead to be forgotten
I want to go back to play

.

The earth below dyed vile red
it flowed…
…she lie broken.
she feels dead.
For life has been forgotten

How could she address the innocent wish
Go back in time
Hush this mess
Never put on that dress

This was her prophecy
Her wish became a philosophy
taken in secrecy
bound in conspiracy

As she has been removed
From the yellow dress

Fading

Faded and forgotten
color dulled
soul shifted
and lost in their busyness

she remains unnoticed
she has become stuck in pain
scattered amongst here-say
while lies once again cover
acts of violence
as they minimize the crime
against body,mind and soul

faded and unnoticed
is where they left her
to be forgotten
and no longer remembered
treated rotten
to make it easier for you
but my God has not forgotten

vanished and pale
dismissed by your naiveness
and the easiness of silence

go ahead
turn your head
ignore injustice
at the cost of my
my expense
none of this makes sense

i am fading
fading fast
as I ask
how can this last
as it seems to be
a spell has been cast
as i fade into the past.

waiting for angels

 

As a young girl I saw into a different world
I saw heaven
i felt the brush of angels wings
i smelled the air of a world where milk and honey flowed throughout
i walked on paths where sunlight came from the ground
from the towering tress
and many rivers

But as I saw this world and at times could go
i felt the coldness of rushing water
the smell of earth and fear
the pain to awful to explain

‘you’re beautiful’

A friend sent me this song and has been on repeat a lot the past few days. As I listen to these are some of my own words that come to mind

beautiful was tainted by ugliness
innocence taken from evilness
hope hidden because of fearfulness
confidence stripped to nothingness

today i take back beautiful
i take back her innocence
hope is hidden no longer
confidence is being re built

I am beautiful
not because you tell me
but because God made me so.
Beautiful.

(these words are nothing with out this song. I hope you can take the time to listen to this amazing song)

PMS meets Depression… oh boy! ;)

If you are reading this from Dverse… I linked the wrong post this is not it:) but you are more then welcome to read it:)  here is the right link http://untitledmoments.com/2012/01/31/untitled-i-cant-title-a-moment-if-i-really-dont-know-what-it-is-it-just-is-untitled/

Ugh....

PMS is Depressions worst enemy. I suppose for guys too it would be hard to be depressed and have to deal with a hormonal cranky nagging women once a month :)

But girls… you know that beyond the bloating and frequent stops to the bathroom that are just a wast of time… and once a month you can’t ware white. (well i did that once in rebellion of the curse of periods… and regretful inform you it didn’t go well for me… all that and I was singing at a small coffee shop when the gravity decided to play a funny trick on me as I had my favorite cute white pants on :-/ ) anyway… off that bunny trail (ADD moment) All the bloating and inconvenience of being a girl, can be tiresome, but with all that boldly stated… there is nothing worse than being the girl who suffers from major PMS and being engulfed in depression. Talk about the worst 5 days… emotional, dramatic and out of control.

I didn’t even watch the Super Bowl on Sunday because I was convinced my world as I knew it was coming to an end. Drama, drama, drama :) .  …and I love football almost as much as I love my kids;)

I am not going to minimize the pain that I am feeling Depression is very real to me and the emotions I feel are real. Yesterday morning when I awoke after crying my self to sleep and saying many things I did not mean and MAJORLY regret, I was greeted with the curse of our visiting monthly nightmare :) I was not… I repeat NOT smiling then! I out loud told God I was mad at Him. I emotionally stated that this was not funny… this is not a joking mater… My emotions where real! ugh!!! :) oh yes… I then cried for the next 5 hours. So lets just say that the already emotional feelings i had were intensified by 10 from the greatness of PMS.

As I write to you today it’s 11am and I am showered and smiling and ready to face this ugly war and yell at all the lies that the evilness tells me to believe. I am going to do something today and enjoy it! I am going to smile… and laugh… and may cry; yet when the (what I believe are awful…) tears come… I wont think the world is ending.

I have much to face in the next many many months. Many decisions need to be made. I am going to make sure I don’t let my emotions get int he way of my judgement as I make them. I have to realize that depression is a disease and it’s a process to learn how to understand it all.

I am not saying that my posts are going to be full of sunshine. BUT! THEY will be filled with a little more hope… yes and pain… but realizing that beauty comes from pain. (but honest I will be… )

I am off to fight the day… not tomorrow but today.

green – but not that you would know

Someone once said about me this…


.
.green
but not that one would know
i barely know
and i’ve tried hard to know
sometimes her green does not recognize even themselves
mostly they know too much
.                         .              .   

this way
that way
but not your way
not long enough for you to know

up
down
more down than up

i’ve searched to see what’s within her green
i need her green to feel safe enough to search
to let what’s behind her green do what she is made to do

the green is made to tell
even if there are things longed to be untold
the green is made to learn
even if there are things longed to be unlearned

hesitant – but desperate for someone to know the exact green
the exact shade
the exact hue
the exact brightness

someone to know
that’s what’s needed
that’s what’s feared
hidden
that’s the the shade of green
a hidden green

shame hinders her green to look my way
yet longs for someone to know
someone who wants to know
someone who looks long enough
someone who waits long enough
someone who knows too much
and then still wants to know more

green
but not that you would know
