Writing Workshop!

Sounds good, although not the most salacious chap

Wow @katrinaj87 this is so intense! I like it a lot and it makes me sad at the same time. It is really well written and you can totaly feel all the pain and connect, you tell a whole story just in few lines.

Thanks a lot for sharing this with the rest. If you want to share more please keep doing it! 

All the best,

Gilda 

Rag Doll

Sad little princess all torn and broken

All she wanted was to see the stars

Help is what she needed,a prison's what she found

Slave to the pound, children in chain's

The poster's on the wall.....starving little runaway

Demons in pursuit,clawing at the dark

Year's have passed not much has changed

New life,new demon’s it's all the same

Curtain Call

Standing there alone waiting for the show to begin,her palms sweaty her heart pounding. Acting has become just another daily chore,mundane and repetitive. Her jaw aches with the stain of a thousand empty lies, her smile just another painting on her useless lips. The curtains open,the crowd stares ,again, waiting for another dumb act so they have an excuse to laugh. She wishes for the night, when she is alone smile gone,music up,tears running unchecked down her cheek. She sips away at another ounce of poison ,Novocaine  for the soul. she laughs,she dances,she smiles. There's so much noise, so loud saying everything,but nothing all just adding to numb the deadening power of the human condition.

Victim Mentality

Oh dear oh dear 

Life is full of woe !  There's so much wrong

with the world and so

I myself , don't have to be

Though  

My heart stops every time I think of all the time we've spent together, always telling me what to do and ruining every opportunity of happiness. You are the master of my emotions and my happiness, you the one that tells me I'm fat every time I see myself on the mirror, you who thinks that I am never enough... You are killing me softly, but I won’t let you.

Is this Zen ?

Another awful day

I awake

To this

Misery

Again 

Again and again

Misery again and again

Never ending pain 

Never ever and ever ending pain

The never ever ending pain

Of this terrible , endless never ending pain

I do not dwell on the pain of my past ,

I want to live for today,

I fill my mind with joy and hope that will last ,

there's no room for bad thoughts , no way !!

I only focus on things that lift me higher ,

a family picture around a camp fire .

There is happiness to be had if you look in the right places ,

turn your nightmares into pretty dreams and flower beds in your minds darkest spaces.

Never let yourself be beaten , fight like a warrior would ,

Be brave , be bold , get up on your feet , and you can turn all that is Bad into Good .
