Normal

by mossgirl19   Jun 11, 2017


I admit, I change faces
And I do it all the time.

Sweet but seconds later
I’m screaming wild.

Gentle and bubbly
Then I become a foe.

Understanding,
Then I turn to stone.

Loving and forgiving,
Then consumed by hate.

Trusting,
Then losing that faith.

I admit, this instability
Has become a norm for me.

    ^^
    This line hit me like a ton of bricks and took my breath away. Sad but true and I can absolutely relate.

    Mel Liz, firstly well done on a wonderful yet sombre piece (in my opinion) with what I believe to be some fab subtle rhyming throughout.

    The title I must say intrigued me as it made me wonder exactly what is 'normal' because I don't think any of us know as we (like with anything) will all have our own views on it.

    1/ We all change faces and it's abit like putting on a posh voice when talking to say the hospital or the queen (haha) and again I wonder why? And I think it's because deep down we're all afraid of judgement and our first impression we make on people.

    2/ had to laugh at this as earlier I was ok then bam I turned into crazy cat lady (stupid pms lol)

    3/ This is more relatable for sweet ladies like us ;) keep your friends close but your enemies closer.

    4/ This was like the wind hitting my face, bam!! But please don't frown or your face'll stick that's what I'm told anyhow!!

    5/ This gets us all.. sometimes we have to love and hate and forgive but sometimes it's hard.

    6/ This is very true. I have lost all my faith recently

    7/ Ditto!!!

    Loved the honesty in this.

    Much love,
    Duchess Em ;) x
