I Failed You.....

I Failed You.....

A Poem by Onlyme
"

Failure...

"
I am just so devastated
and broken hearted
at my hubbies
diagnoses
of cancer.

I just can't
stop crying
and my anxiety
is playing
 me up badly.

Along with my i.b.s
and depression.
 
I just wish
I could cope
with all this pressure
and stress.

Let alone
failing him
as a human being
by being so weak
and so softhearted

I feel
so guilty
and a
big let down
to him
for being  so useless
and not  being
fit at all
to help him
properly.

I am going around
in circles
in life and in
my own mind and heart.
I have let us both down
but more some him.

Your first two stanza's read and ring absolutely true.. It sounds as though you are experiencing and displaying perfectly normal and under the circumstances, natural emotions.. Anger, shock, denial and of course anxiety and low mood, are the order of the day..

The remaining verses too are quite understandable... It is far too soon to collect your thoughts and start to think more clearly, positively and systematically... All the fears, doubts and uncertainties are also to be expected.. having them does not mean or make you weak.. I feel that you will eventually be able to cope much more adaptively than you are able at the moment... The other thing of course, is that there should be professional help around to support not only you, but your hubby too..... Fingers crossed and wishing you and all those you love much calm and all good things.......... Neville
