Whirlwind of Emotions

Today my world spins round and round
Due to a whirlwind of emotions 
There's no gravity at all
I have no center
Will I succumb
To an emotional Hell? 
What will become of 
me? I feel like I will
Cease to be
I'm fading fast
What will become
Of me? Poetry came
To my rescue like
Lightening speed
Reminding me of
The lifeline given
Long ago still 
Remains today.

Judy Ball Date: 10/28/2021 2:29:00 PM This is a fine write my friend. Wish my daughter could find an outlet like writing for when she is in some of her moods. She is often in an emotional hell of her own. Glad to hear your poetry is a good outlet for you. God Bless, JB Login to Reply

Eve Roper Date: 10/25/2021 8:13:00 PM Hope you are well, Alexis, your poem shows a yell for help.. I talk to a few especially seniors and they feel like they need that life line to be thrown at them to be pulled out of their seclusion. Hugs from me Login to Reply

Judy Ball Date: 10/18/2021 12:40:00 PM I think most of us can relate to this. I find that laying my problems at the feet of The Lord helps immensely. Listening to inspirational tapes and soothing music also helps. A good laugh is Also Good Medicine. And I will share an inspirational verse I read recently with you. "He who kneels before God can stand before anything." Great job here my friend. God Bless, JB Login to Reply

Gershon Wolf Date: 10/17/2021 7:30:00 PM Looks as if poetry really anchors you. Great! I know that I need something to anchor me. (Usually it's the jobs my wife gives me to do every day. lol. Just kidding, really. She's exceptionally undemanding. Couldn't have found a better gal anywhere on the planet). Happiness and Joy, Gershon Login to Reply

Shirley Hawkins Date: 10/17/2021 4:42:00 PM Great title and verse. I found myself jotting things down when life was tough to help rationalise my addled brain. It gave me a focus, I wrote simple poems and sent them to the local paper and to my surprise and delight some of them were published. Poetry is therapy for me. I would like to say that PS and all members have given me the chance to have a voice and realise there are many people everywhere that want to make a better world for everone not just the priviliged few.....
