I like this - the feeling of having survived things and grown stronger.

broken-hearted cathartic sobbing; passed on to friends. thank you. x

[exceptindreams]

Oh, oh. I send you hugs and tea and sunshine.

[kaberett]

It was the good kind of weeping. Friends also greatly enjoyed it, if that's the right word; found it of worth and value and further dissemination, anyway. Thank you lots for sharing it with us. Hugs and tea and sunshine are all things that my day today contained. :-)

I love this, it reminds me a lot of a zine I used to read called Doris.

[heavyleg]

I love that zine!

[animaltime]

I'm pretty sure that Cindy is still writing and publishing it, too! I should start ordering them again; that zine helped me through some times when there was no one in my life whose point of view I could get behind. There was only unhappiness and dysfunction around. Doris was real, not afraid to talk about very difficult things but also not averse to the joys and pleasures of life, you know.

[heavyleg]

yes!! well put. and yeah she is still putting them out. i don't keep up with zines much anymore but i order her new ones whenever they appear.

One of the best and most beautiful, uplifting poems I have read in a long time.
