My kind of Madness
I pray the hebrew word Selah, meaning
Be still praise God.
Goes unanswered.
Stillness unheard of in my manic mad mind.
Ramblingthoughtrunoneintotheotherramblingthrough my aching head.
Thoughts turn images of picking back up the bottle to numb my demons.
Unruly dancers in my thoughts they are.
I wonder how long i can white knuckle grasp holding onto self....
Oh please God, Selah! Hear me!
Can'tgobackcan'tgobackcan'tgoback!!!
Hell here in my head and heavy soul.
Hell here in my heavy heart.

No! You can't go back. You know what is there. You walked away from it. No! You cannot go back. This could be a life or death decision . . . Jen! You cannot go back. If I can do it YOU can do it, and by doing it, I mean you cannot go back.

It cannot be easy when the ghosts of closets begin rattling their chains through your memory.
Your courage and strength through writing will be your armor. And your decision to carry onward
while exorcising thoughts will become your own hero.

"Be still praise God."
"Goes unanswered. "
"Stillness unheard of in my manic mad mind."
~these three are hard hitting at the gate & do-soo stun... of the asking and the silence..
Adore the foundation for the plea.. demons tend lurk in many diff bottles when we are rubbed just raw enuf.
"I wonder how long i can white knuckle grasp holding onto self...."
~forceful grasp, thoroughly ingrained in my mind darlins..from your capture.
*kissin those knuckles & offering..then insisting.. that you rest awhile, snugglin my shoulder.
The heart strength, the Will-- rings louder than the madness as I see you!
As in all, it seems we struggle to fight ourselves more than the numbing agent that bedevils us..
this is a great comp entry and I feel every line..*rubbin irish luckees on it! ;)
warm nuzzles of heart, my sweet kindred soul of Jen..

There's an entire novel to be spawned from the seeds in that piece. Consider it Jennifer.

Hi Jen,
Can't go back is right, there's only hell there for you. I'm glad you are getting it out in verse instead of getting it on with the bottle. Super honest and strong write Jen.

It is hard to hold on. There's always the temptation of the bottle or other sources of comfort that just don't last, and prove destructive in the long run. Your poem shows that struggle and a fear that comes in waves. It can be a daily battle, and that heaviness in your heart and soul can bring you down. But not quite. I believe that your prayers will be answered, and madness relieved. Judging by the strength of your lines I'd say you're on your way, Jennifer. This is fine work and not the incoherent ramblings of a lunatic. This is lucid and strong. Evenyourrunonsentencesmakesense.

Jennifer I know as sure as the dawn comes that you can resist that devil bottle. Having read you I've glimpsed the heart of a strong woman. There is so much you have to live for. I know you can do it my love.
Your lover and supporter come what may,
