Hello Andrea,

I love your ability to extrapolate from a life observations and then remold this into a poem that says it all without saying it.

There are people, often friends and family that wonder (and worry too) at a person's strength. Strength of composure under extreme mental strain.

There's no need for concern - these feelings are funnelled in just the right way.

Well done and take care,

Michael

Wow Andrea what a beautifully written yet sad piece.
Sometimes we need to speak to help us get along in life, other times its best to keep quiet and just cry when we think nobody is listening.

All the best, Em
