MaryAnne, I read this while on the bus and as soon as I got home I logged onto the computer to comment.

This piece was very deep and honest and I know that it is a very personal write for you. I love the use of metaphors, they are nicely incorporated and fit well with the tone and emotion you display here.

I am kind of speechless and don't really know how to comment on everything in this piece because it's overall one of the deepest and raw poems I have read for a long time

You are strong, always remember that. Keep writing and keep your chin up xx
