The poem below, although negative in tone, is an example of how my mind works. Feeling unsure about how I feel, what I am and even who I am. But thankfully I’ve been utilising my therapy tools to work it out!
Borderline personality Yet borderline nobody Borderline strong Yet borderline about to crack Borderline smiling Yet borderline crying What is this state That causes self-hate?
Eyes twinkling with joy Or wet with had enoughs Lips curved in smile Or defeatist had-it grimace Body lay relaxed Or simply playing dead What is this state That causes real emotion?
I enjoy writing to share my mental and physical health issues. Lover of films, videogames, gardening, nature and the offbeat.

This one reflects story of many . Sometimes, it’s just quite difficult to understand what we are and what really makes us? Maybe it’s difficult to find the answer but moving and growing is one way .. beautifully penned. Absolutely, loved this
