090. Are You Aware Of What Comments

Sounds like a tough situation to be in. Someone(BronzeGoddess on YouTube to be exact) once said that you cant rely on others to make you happy, in marriage or anything else, that's your own responsibility. Also I can Imagine it becomes nearly impossible to try to help someone if they insist on blaming you for their unhappiness.

WOW. why didn't you just hand her a gun and help her hold it to her head? ! [sorry; i got carried away] tell me you made this up, please! it reminds me a little bit of my first wife. she has had trouble with depression (up and down) for years, starting when her first husband left her, or before that, perhaps. a very forceful poem. it is easy to blame, but difficult to be forgiving and compassionate. well, yeah, that IS a generalization. and growing up can be complicated when one is 'morbidly depressed week after week after week' as you portray the character in this poem. thanks for sharing this poem. bri :)
