cloistered
surrounded by many
the raw emotions
remain inside
oh, if only
one could
unfetter
and spew
there’s safety
remaining hidden
but danger
staying shushed
mental health
physical health
all in crisis
because of silence
what will it take
to emerge
to purge
to break free

There are places where you can let off rage, by breaking things in a room, but one has to pay for it. It is based on the Japanese concept of punching a doll.
One needs to find a non-judgemental viewer to purge it out. A coach can play the role.

I hope you’re doing okay, Susi, as this sounds like it’s written from personal experience. Can so relate to this.

I am, Tony! Thank you for caring. It is definitely written from personal experience but long past. Just a perfect prompt meets experience. 🙂 But I hope you’re doing ok since you can relate?

Unfortunately, not all of mine is in the past, but I do manage. I must. I would be rather annoyed if I let this beat me. Ha! (And thank you for caring, Susi. Much appreciated!) 😛

This is a wonderful piece, Susi. So many harbor their feelings when they’re hurt physically and mentally. Thank you so much for joining in.

With so many people in the world, loneliness is epidemic. A kind word or an invitation can change a life at a time. The alternative is to accept tragedy. Yesterday my sons favorite teacher committed suicide. Super nice guy that lived a lonely life without family or friends to lean on. We never can tell where people are at in their personal lives. It’s important to be awesome to everyone!
