SELF CONTROL

SELF CONTROL

A Poem by Colleen C Dunphy
"

just what the title says

"

So tightly held inside

Each day that passes

Learning to forget

Force it down, forget about it.

 

Can't say what this does to me

Open your eyes and see

Nothing I do is right

Tonight and every night

Rejection is the biggest threat.

Old fears haunt me.

Let go to hold on.

I love this, so cool that you were able to manipulate the "self control" part along the side without it being obvious. You nailed your feelings down, you compromised nothing to keep the form. Great write and, as usual, i know where you're coming from. xoxo Chris

Excellent. I JUST noticed the "self control" letters going down. LOL (It's okay, I'm always late to the party.) Anyway, that's what makes this so good, that you wrote a flowing piece thats coherent with the letters. AND you put honest feelings and emotions it. Great job.
