Poetry is a great outlet to release pain, and anger, and hopelessness, too. If you are feeling bad, write down what you feel - it will help, I guarantee it. I have written poems and song lyrics all my life, and sometimes I think they were the only thing that kept me from going off the deep end. I'm publishing my poetry here so I can have it in a more permanent form than my internet blog, and in the hope that the reader may find some solace or peace in the words I say. We are all in this together - some of us just feel the pain more than others.
