[hometext] => Been thinking about this for a little bit. Thought I'd try to put it into words.
[bodytext] => Swimming in pools of sorrow, I am your broken toy. You gave and gave, but I broke despite your best efforts. You do not talk to me directly, but to someone else in the room and discuss me. As if I wasn’t there and didn’t have a say. I try my best to fix myself, to not be such a problem. I’m sorry I cause you trouble, I’m sorry I cause you frustration. But I am the unfixable problem. Eventually you toss me aside, in the pit of despair to collect yourself. You pick me up, your favorite doll, the one with all the tears. You hug me and attempt to fix me, once again. I try to cooperate, I really do! But your love is just too draining. I have no strength to fix myself. You would fix me, but fixing costs money, I do not want to be more of a problem by causing you to spend too much money. You shove me into someone else and say, “Fix it!” as if they have a magical cure or device. But they can’t repair me-- I am the unfixable problem. Stop trying to label it. Stop trying to label me! Your problem has a name! Your problem has opinions! Your problem wants to be free... You try to ignore the fact that my eyes are coming undone, that my limbs need re-stitching. So you hug me and squeeze me, weakening the seams, until I fall apart. Strewn in a million pieces. What else did you expect?! I am your unfixable problem!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
