Dealing Poems

I didn't know

All i remember is her glaring kindness 
Her wanting love and attention from any source 
She had a beautiful toughness about her
That strengthened all around her

I did not know she had cancer 
I wish i would have had the opportunity 
to say some words of encouragement to her
but it was to late

Now I'm faced with

Dealing With Depressive Loneliness

How would anyone deal with depressive loneliness 
when even the dreariest thoughts allow great fear?
Hiding in that lonely world seems right for some,
having nothing is giving up everything even love;
choose joy or pain, dance alone or drink a beer:
see others indulge in happiness, refill your glass! 

How useless is believing in miracles,
they only happen to

Premium MemberDealing With Grief

Nothing can erase grief
Or speed up the healing process,
But, writing about it can keep you aware
As you go through it,
And offer some solace
As you wait for time
To do the rest.

I’ve come to the end

I’ve come to the end

I’ve come to the end
I’m sorry to say,
I’m not strong enough
To fight through every day.
You may think me selfish
That I don’t give a damn,
I tried really hard
To be not who I am.
The pain- too intense
A plan was made,
To relieve myself
And stop this facade.
I’m sorry my will
Was not strong enough,
The tears I

Dealing with Death

The darkness,
I will not dwell,
and the pain shall ebb.

Withered in its wake,
indelible of mind.

Intervals by chance,
a surety in life.

Grief, 
the toll of it's permanence.

Premium MemberDealing with the Elf Pirate

The blue-skinned elf pirate did not fit in
We tried to chase her off again and again
She had a certain power that was a win-win.
Along with her magical pirate queen twin.

Sometimes I tripped and fell on my soft bubbly chin
When I tried to scare her and her green-skinned elf twin.
Blue-skinned elf thought it was hilarious and

Dealing With Storms 

The lightning outside is
Far away and harmless
Like fireworks in the night
I safely watch from home
And chuckle with delight

The lightning outside is
Moving ever closer 
I sense malignance now
Lurking behind thunder
Sweat breaks upon my brow
 
The lightning outside is
Inside my city’s walls
Flashes bright and blinding 
No longer firecrackers 
It’s jarring and grinding

The lightning outside

Dealing With Healing

When we’re dealing with healing,
It’s very revealing
To show how we’re feeling because

As time keeps on drifting
And cells may be shifting,
Our mood might be lifting its claws.

Acceptance and practice
To deal with what whacked us
Can help to distract us and pause

All the negative notions
(Of which there are oceans)
To hopeful emotions. Applause!

Dealing the Better Hand

I struggle every day with trying to find myself,
And when I think I got it figured out,
My head begins to cloud with doubt
Pushing the negative feelings aside
Trying to be sunshine and daisies,
This life has enough storm clouds already
Keeping the faith,
Even when the rocks come tumbling down
Putting on my bravest face,
Somewhere in there I know everything

Premium MemberDealing With the Public

Dealing with the public can be very challenging
Imagine the diverse personalities you must deal with
The most sweet to the most ornery you can imagine
Can actually be a reason for homicide  
At least be a legitimate reason to cause bodily harm
Basically it's an interpretation of the law
If the lawyer has had previous experience decides
