I had mentioned on my thread (Lurking here 2 years) how I dealt with my pain by writing poetry because unlike journaling poetry has a beginning and an end so I could kinda keep my pain in a box so to speak.
I was wondering if anyone else wrote poetry as therapy to deal with the pain both BS and WS.
I would love to see others poems and I am willing to post some of mine first if it would make it easier for others to post theirs.
Good idea? Bad idea? Delete this thread?

In my self imposed silence turned to poetry

Since we’re all anonymous I thought it might be safe and maybe, just maybe it might help somebody going through a similar situation.
It was self therapy for me and it truly helped!
Asterisk, there might be more folks like you and me on here :)

Roses are red
Violets are blue
That shit really hurt
So, screw you!
I just wrote that. Not quite Shakespeare, though I think he'd appreciate it.
