Gypsy this really brought tears to my eyes.
I'm sorry that you suffered as a child, and to hear of your Mothers suffering also.
This poem is very emotional and put together in brilliantly to compliment the melancholy within.
I'm so glad your depression is under control and it'd wonderful that you can sit every day ans express your feelings and thoughts through your writing.
Mental health can me so stigmatised because many people jist don't understand.
Well done my friend.
Best Wishes

Comment from Gloria ....
It is a great sorrow to not have anyone to share your thoughts and emotions with. I thought you did a fine job of illustrating this isolation and how often those who suffer from it believe it is something they have brought on themselves.
Great use of language and the suicide hotline is useful information to share.
Very well done, Gypsy. :)

Comment from Jasmine Girl
Despite of your depression, I think you have had a good life in Pasadena, CA. You are very creative and a very good poet. I think many artists do have the same condition. I visited Vincent Van Gogh's asylums in St. Remy. His insanity definitely helped his art.
Well done.

Comment from Bill Schott
This poem, All I Loved, I Loved Alone, finds the lonesome soul expressing the long life of physical and mental abuse which has led to a survival attitude.

Comment from patcelaw
This seems to speak to me is that all of my life? It seems that I never quite fit. It seen my brother's and my sisters were very much more important to my mom then I was. But as I grew older, I found out that I had quite a lot going for me and I never let it bother me once I figured that out. I am having a little problem with the site reading these things for me and it's kinda hard for me to read your text with it being the gray on the black. It doesn't work out too well for my vision. Patricia.

Comment from Douglas Goff
You are akin to Poe in more ways that depression. You are a word genius as well!
This was dark and somber, but strong. So very strong. You are really dropping some potent poems, my friend!

Comment from Wendy G
You have captured that feeling of depression very well, along with the insecurity of not being valued by a society which sets great value on looks, and of being unable to control an abusive situation. Well witten.

Comment from Alexandra Trovato
This us such a valuable free form poem. You not only used this platform to express yourself but also to help others. I think a person with a black hole inside would never care about others. Whoever hurt you was the black hole personified, not you. You were the bright eyed soul with a good heart and by the Grace of God, you still have that. No manner of evil has been able to tear that away from you. God loves you, my friend.
Peace to your youthful soul,
Alexan xx

Comment from Marilyn Hamilton
This is a beautiful and very brave post. Depression touches so many and ruins lives. I'm glad yours is under control. We have a lot in common. And Edgar Allen Poe was my favorite as well from the young age of probably 11. Thanks for sharing

The torment of these words really guts the teacher in me. I only want children to ever be happy.
Your gift of creativity is immense, Gypsy, and I hope it brings you a little spark to know that you've enhanced my world - learning how to express myself through Japanese poetry and also how to feel things through your words and images. You do an immense service to every person here on FS with your talent and drive. I am sending you so vwry much �� this evening. Xoxo
