How I Suffered

I am tormented with some pressure,
I am indecisive of mad aggression,
My alter torments I with a measure
Of annoying sad mental suppression.
 
Punch first (a KO blow),
Ask many questions later,
Kick them down below
With a force so greater.
 
This weather's my mind
To feeling stressed out,
Then I am liable to find
That my alter does bout.
 
Indecisive affray of my faculties
Render's I to be madly subjected,
And regrettably my sanity so dies
As I feel rejected and also dejected.

  2. I know that you are editing your collection of poems, Andrew. Nevertheless, I'm glad you left the comment about being well. I always try to note the © date if I'm worried. I can really feel your anger in the second verse. There were times in my past when I've felt anger and then felt rejected and dejected. Have you ever seen read? I always thought it was an expression, until the day I actually saw red. That's when I knew I had to learn to manage my anger. Fortunately that's long behind me. I hope you never go back to that place, Andrew. Another strong poem. Wishing you all the best!

    1. Greetings Louise. I used to get tormented by my voices, who would subject me to their way of hostility! I still hear voices, but so much less! I hope I don't go back to how I was - which was a nightmare for me as well as my loving Family and Friends. I'm glad I'm in a much better place. Blessings to you my Friend. Love love, Andrew.
