You Poets Suck As Psychologist

First chapter: She gently sooths my soul with a quixotic grasp Yet she’s a ruthless (use imagination) Her emotions unstable like pitches in opera She teases touching and leaving like breezes Love works like God…in mysteries 2nd chapter: I read faultless poems by my elder poets My heart temper tantrums from elaborate adjectives use to describe her My eyes bleed, squinting wishing they never laid pupils on these poems Final chapter: Reading poems of confusion from elders Poems based of melancholic love tragedies Passion filled tragic that plagues me in an immature form How naïve to believe that adults would’ve figured her out My peripheral vision fights over the red X button and the next poem button The X button wins. No one can figure out the depths of love. Thanks for nothing. Love and peace.

Great writing and what a wonderful way to express anger and disappointment. As for me, I write what I think and feel, read what others write and know I am not alone, and then my friend... I seek therapy from an actual psychologist. I think everyone could use a good one at least every know and then to remind them that they aren't anymore crazy than the rest of the world. LOL Here's hoping things get better for you. Many smiles from a friend, not a psychologist... Lolita

Jim, Are you saying you need a psychologist? Or do we all need one? LOL We poets pour out our hearts while trying to bestow a little kindness and encouragement...Don't count on us as psychologists ... We don't have the traing and we don't charge the fees.... I bet a good psychologist would have a field day on this site.LOL It's all in love. Accepting, giving, etc. God is Love...the Bible says. Good luck figuring Love out. Lovingly, Dane

We're not psychologists, just poets who offer compassion at times.
