Things are not always as they appear.
at least that's how it is here.
I put on a show day after day
acting like everything is okay,
but when the night is through
don't know what to do,
just wipe my weary eyes,
trying not to cry.
No one knows the real me,
I'm more than meets the eye.
a troubled little girl,
off to discover the world,
trying to get her thoughts untangled
as the sky begins to fall.
wondering was my choice
really worth it all.
Screaming out beyond this
realm of tortured illusions,
leaves me with bitter confusion,
my mind twisting thoughts of
what my past used to be,
not knowing now what is reality
someone help me before I become
unglued and cause a fatality.

Touches all of us
Your piece touches the heart of what I believe all of us feel at some point in our lives. Hopefully you, and we all, discover that these bleak moments are fleeting when compared with the good in life, even though the good is sometimes so hard to find. Please keep up the good writing and keep your chin up. -
I LOVE YOU! :X twin
Dear Twin,
No fatality necessary. Live! My shoulder is here to cradle your head. My arms to hold you Jenn. You are my sister, you are protected, don't worry, don't fret... When we go through storms there's always a rainbow when the clouds clear away.
You've expressed with intensity the depths that life can takes us, but there are also great heights, reach for them, don't miss the miracle, it's not in those depths. The miracle is just above your head, at arms reach.
I'm talking in riddles to some but me and you know Jenn.

Jenn, my dear.
Even the most empathetic among all of us can't begin to fathom what kind of troubles plague you...all we can do is be here to listen, and offer a comforting word of advice or a shoulder to cry on whenever it is needed. I have been looking back lately, trying to see where my many struggles have managed to pay off. I know no constants; everything is mutable, and each day I find it more difficult to cling to anything. It's as if life doesn't want us to succeed, or that the efforts just don't matter. I know well how this feels, though I have not experienced the same trials.
I can't help but feel the words "do I matter?" resonating.
You are stronger than you think you are. Hold on, sweet one. The bad things in life aren't meant to last forever...that's just their effect on our psychological being.
Many blessings,
Raven Aurora

Are you reading my diary again. Oh Gawd do I ever know this feeling. It seems like my life is going through changes faster than I can process them sometimes. Kids growing up, making plans to move from the place I've called home for over 20 years, parents moving out of state... everyone seems to be scattering here and there... all the "constants" in my life and here I am wondering where the hell I am headed and why even bother. Damn girl... s you a lot!!!

Aww, dear, shit happens and we all know it, but I also know that you will make it past this! You are an amazing woman! Don't ever give up and don't ever give in! I will always try to help you in anyway possible. I pray for you so much and I love you even more! Just don't give up okay? This time will pass too, and then life will move on; trust me. Just believe that God will bring you through this. I love you so much Sis!
Much love
