How does one psychoanalyze a professor of psychology? Your poem really does challenge my reading. I saw several examples of classic phrasing. Verse 4, line one. 'On the chill of a breeze,' simply superb.
The I come to verse 9 where the entire four lines scream of a caring and supportive friend.
If I ever need a psychologist, I may need an appointment.
Welcome to Fanstory and congratulations on your milestone post.

Thanks for reviewing. You sound quite sane to me.
Comment from Aussie
Well written with a poignant message. We can sit and do nothing or we can get up and help those less fortunate.
I like to think I can help people online because physically I can't walk. Blessings, K xx

What I have lost physically I have increased spiritually. We are not here for ourselves, to help others is my course. K xx
Comment from Jessica Wheeler
I wish I could give this more than six stars. Truly, exceptional. I was completely drawn in-captivated each moment of this emotional ride. The way it begins gives a sense of indifference and slowly builds to a feeling of hope. The lesson here is beautiful- and your delivery was brilliant. Thank you for sharing this! <3

great poem about insomnia, and things seen in the middle of the night when wild things come out to play in the dark corners of our mind and we enter our own twilight zone nightmares.

Twilight zone, indeed. Thank you for the review.
Comment from forestport12
Interesting take on mortality and fragility of our future. I get a sense here that it is like talking to yourself, and as we age, we have these conversations and imagine what shape our future will take. I liked the unforced natural sound of the rhymes and the cadence, but the way handled the subject was better than good.

A beautifully composed rhyming poem. It's words magically flow from the screen to my mind.
What a wonderful message is conveyed of giving to and assisting others.
A thoroughly uplifting and enjoyable read.

Excellent poem entry for the Rhyming Poetry Contest.
The rhymes and meter are not forced and they flow well.
I like your poem, it's very positive from darkness to the light. It's important to be grateful for what have
the structure makes sense, it draws on emotions and it presents strong images.

Comment from Dawn Munro
One small suggestion for this wonderful poem -- here I would capitalize (H)elp =
"help me, please"
This was so evocative, I wish I still had a six left this week to rate it as it deserves! Well done indeed!

Really nice poem and I enjoyed reading it. Your poem flows nicely. The rhyming and and meter of your poem flow smoothly. I like how you changed the color of you font and then back to the original color. Well done. Thank you for sharing.

Comment from Sarah Das Gupta
A very interesting subject, reminds me of a poem by Robert Louis Stevenson. This is self-therapy by a therapist! I was a teacher and I often think I should begin by teaching myself! I like the picture which certainly complements a fascinating poem!
