I Went to the Therapist Today

I am struggling
to keep my life
from taking over my mind
Yet,
circumstances being such as they are
tend to pile up like
the dirty dishes that nobody wants to wash.
I struggle with my feelings and my emotions
like everyone
but I FEEL
so strongly
about
love,
relationships,
conflict
and
pain.
I struggle with keeping people
too far away from
my heart
Trusting them not to crush it
Allowing them to help me
Even to demand that some people help me.
I struggle in my marriage
as I feel like
I have been snuffed
my soul is starving
for intimacy
for legitimacy
for validation
If people indeed
are not static
where does one draw the line
and demand accountability
for the actions that are hurtful and painful
The body ages
but the soul can either
grow or starve to death.
