- Feelings -

)) (( Depression Afraid )) Anxiety Panic (( Depression Anxiety Tired Panic )) (( Afraid )) Words that we do not like Everyone has known these feelings They are not a sign of weakness We struggle with feelings and will always be so strong Strong ..... do we always need to be so strong Say it loud ....Today I have really a bad day The heart beat a little faster ..... You might have a little panic or anxiety Depression comes like a creeping dark carpet - You are afraid You are not a weak human - you are a normal human being with feelings 04.05.2013 A-L Andresen :) (Second place in contest)

and when these moments come, just recognize them, then let them go right on thru you...don't hold on to them or they will hold your soul captive...the happy and the sad...let them all just run right through you and live only in the present; this is a lovely, lovely poem.

I like this raw idea. And I think the line "Words that we do not like" has potential to open the word gates for some more of the REALLY visceral word-struggles that we do not like, words that seemingly convince humans that they are weak. What about lying? That's a start… I'm enjoying your pieces. W

I think it is perfectly normal to feel afraid and depressed at times. Life is not perfect, so why should our feelings about it be hidden. Poetry seems to be very therapeutic. It has helped me to get through some tough times. This poem was expressed very well. Great work, Anne Lise! Congratulations on your win, as well! :)

I believe that sometimes people really do need these strong feelings, that truly make us feel weak, otherwise are spirits aren't used to the feeling of sympathy for yourself and others. It is a beautiful poem, thanks for sharing!
