hopscotch for the mad

What if we are searching in the wrong places for answers. Maybe the light is the abyss and the darkness is where we should lie. Great write dear.

thank you dearest Tim you could be right.. love Brenda

Unsalted nuts,  less sugar is the answer ...

thank you dearest Poet how'd you know it was the sugar? love you.. xx Brenda

What can I say except to fight the fight with vigor. I understand you are infatuated with the dark.  Don't allow it to take posesionm of your soul..

thank you Jerry I will fight with vigor & no I won't let the dark consume me.. love you my friend.. Brenda

Fear not, Lady Crim.  I see no evidence of madness, just imagination.  Poets do tend to be fragile though.  I've lost a few pieces here and there.  This is an excellent write with the lucidity of the sane.

thank you Sir Crow my imagination makes me nervous sometimes but I wouldn't be a writer without it.. thank you for the love you've shown me.. love Crim

Your word's sink in deep.
Love it!

thank you lovely Tommie :) love Brenda

This reminds me of my brother's constant battle with schizophrenia. When he does not take his meds, he speaks of dark places like this...It touched my heart because it really conveys the intense struggle of being caught between reality and illusion. ❤

thank you for sharing your own personal story with me.. I'm bipolar but I do take my meds but even they are sometimes not talisman enough.. love Crim

My Beautiful Brenda, you feel you are mad because of all which filters through you battling for your attention...it is overwhelming but I know you...you will categorize what goes where and understand why...you teeter as you balance yourself between the two worlds, both having all your respect, 100%....and I'll always be there to hold your hand when you feel you may fall.

I love you passionately my love

With all my love - Taryn xoxo

thank you my love that is what happens exactly.. I will learn the balance & how to put these forces in check as time goes by.. i've learned so much over the years.. I deeply cherish the knowledge that you journey with me.. I love you deeply.. love Brenda

I love this it's so very clever - really love the hopscotch part of it, original and well written :-)

you have such a poetic mind :-)

thank you graciously David I liked that part two :) love & hugs Brenda

Brenda.. sometimes that fear, is strength enough.. and the cracks you feel, could be the opening of the light.. it's natural to be scared, when swimming in uncharted waters.. but i have faith in you.. i don't think i say that enough.. you will find your way.. i believe that.. love you always...






























Dave

thank you Dave what a beautiful way of seeing things.. I believe in you too..deeply appreciate you being you & being here.. I love you my brother.. Brenda

Beautiful Dark Angel, this one had me on edge. I kept wanting to reach through the computer and hug you. You are one of the strongest women I've ever had the honor of knowing. That you recognize the torment and dangers in the teetering helps protect you from the fall, lovely one. And I'm hopping along beside you if you need a steadying hand. So much love for you...

thank you lovely one for the love & hugs I can feel them.. this was just a hard day.. they come & go thankfully I know to stay on my meds.. which keeps me from teetering over the edge.. love you lady.. xo Crim
