"Sometimes, no matter how nice you are,

how kind you are, how caring you are,

how loving you are, it isn't enough for some people."

at times of great distress it is easy for me to be blind to reality and have deep emotions hard to express where my heart is raging with stress and anxiety and I am a lost soul in a sea of waves where some people want to make life hard to handle their actions and unkindness have often hurt me deeply throwing words like weapons leaving scars on my soul forever but, listen to my raving- I will not let these people win I have tried to be nice, kind and caring to all but for some that is not enough so from my gloom I will rise up for some people were never meant to stay in my life but were just passing through I will cast all my hysteria to the wind and will move away from darkness into bright blue skies and I will not change myself except I will be a stronger me _____________________ September 9, 2021 Poetry/Free Verse/Hysterical Blindness Copyright Protected, ID 09-1387-664-09 All Rights Reserved, 2021, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, This or That Vol 7 sponsor, Edward Ibeh, Judged 10/09/2021 Fourth Place
