Invalidation

Invalidation

A Poem by Thisismythearpy
"

Started as a vent piece about how the reason for my decay seems small and is invalidated, then tells the reader how their problem should not be invalidated. I think that was what I was getting at.

"
I am afraid I will never be able to explain 
Why I am truly insane 

Telling therapists about a love that was lost
Paying my health as the cost

Just does not satisfy them

Invalidation through interpretation
Since they have never felt the same

I am sorry doctors 
Who monitor my decay
Holding charts in confusion 
On how my health will not stay

No none can crawl into your head
And know the pain in your heart

No one can look into your broken eyes
And truly feel the pain inside

Accept that people may never understand
They can never fully feel your hurt
No woman or man
Should ever assert

That your problems are no big deal
