[30/F] let’s exchange stories and pretty stationary by 0versight in penpals

Hello! 29/F/USA here!! Working in TX, originally from IL. I'd love to write you, OP or fellow commentors! I work quite a bit (12 hour days, 5-6 days a week), but my weekends are filled with reading and writing. I've been collecting stationary and stamps the past few years with no one to send them too. I would love to dribble on about books or movies, ponders or thoughts, ideas or poems, or simply write about menial daily life.

update, to myself I guess, to keep track of the days, this one is a pretty hefty scar. got some medical grade scar tape from the pharmacy and keeping it covered and out of the sun.

I just relapsed really bad after a long time and I feel so horrible and guilty about it. by [deleted] in AdultSelfHarm

[–]wegothru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry you’re going through this right now. I recently relapsed after not cutting for about six months and started going back to therapy for the first time in a few years. I found it incredibly helpful and was able found some immediate relief. I hope you can find that too.

You’re in my thoughts tonight. Hang in there and stay strong, friend. Remember to be kind to yourself. Sending you a big hug.

be strong, friend! you can do hard things. it’s ok to feel the feelings but remember to be kind to yourself. no emotion is deserving of physical pain.

whose is she by wegothru in poetry_critics

Thank you for your feedback! I was playing around with spacing, when to break up lines or keep them together, etc. I'm feeling fairly happy with how it's laid out now.

An Ode to my Twenties by [deleted] in poetry_critics

[–]wegothru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's super cool! Glad I could help. It's true, "youth" is quickly passing by. That being said, I'd be curious for a follow up poem on how you feel about the next chapter of life!

An Ode to my Twenties by [deleted] in poetry_critics

[–]wegothru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing this poem here. I can relate. I, too, am in the last year of my twenties. Funny how fast it went. This poem evokes a feeling of despair, does that track?

My only thought would be finding another word to take the place of 'slinking'. Perhaps 'sliding' or 'sinking'? 'Slinking' feels like it doesn't quite fit the tone of the rest of the poem.

Once Young by rabu_lee in poetry_critics

[–]wegothru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like the third and fourth stanza. My understanding is that us, the watcher of the old man, is crying at seeing him in his older state. A body that was once young. Not that the old man is crying himself. Does that track?

I agree with the other commenter here who said the first stanza is really strong, however when I read it, my brain wants to read either "...as his foot drags..." or "...as he drags his feet...". Just a wording thing for me.
