Soup Disappearance Reason

My known, soothing landscapes, grown from my own hues and shapes, somehow vanquished their view. Just one more sore blister of news to aid my staid mind’s gist of confused. My angered fist popped tears in their wake before my shock shakily jot them on a list of all my fear sought to restore propped. Truth and I both awoke the first day of last September. Coffee bound, then mumming around, it was not long before I felt scared and anxiety provoked ~
I startled at a stranger’s face in my mirror ~ Noted my home had turned to disorder Saw store reward cards had left my wallet Winced that drawers were insanely arranged I about fell to the floor from facts just scored. Did I want to wake my sleeping man to answer my questions and more?
I choose to abide in the peace of ignorance because I feared that if truth made my bed I would ever decrease beneath the sheets.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Though details are clouded, I have surely been rerouted. I try, but fail to decipher what all determined this matter. Prime pieces of me were clearly scattered blind-battered by forces cemented to time-tatter my mind demented. It feels as though I have been divorced from myself by means of some unleashed, bruiser intruder. I lack all recall of three hundred and sixty-five days and this is a pain not even my neurologist explains.

The feeling of scared and anxiety provoked can be very devastating. I, not too long ago felt the same way, but this old body is starting to just want to give up. I am going to try to not allow it to take over with God's help and his will I will succeed. Well written Cay Cay and very well said.

I forgot to add the poem here it is. Dissociation Unaware when the familiar became a blank stair. The passage of time living a life so blind. No life no feelings this reflection so chilling. The breath of yesterday this gaze does take away. A stranger how clear this reflection in the mirror. Copyright © Michael Craig

Embracing the eternal love & light aglow in our heart, dissolving therein, all pain of this lucid earth life dream is healed. We emerge from each adversity, rising like the Phoenix, stronger, wiser, kinder, acceptant and vibrationally ascended.

If you sent me a cuddle, am I safe to believe it crossed the mighty pond that I might feel a healing caress most powerful? I am thrilled with my fantasy thoughts right now. Thank you for stimulating such a visual feel .. I am happy to have virtually met you ... CayCayt

Dear sweet friend, you may find your thoughts scattered, but there are enough of us who care about you to put your puzzle pieces in order and if some of them don’t quite fit… that’s ok. I’m just happy you’re here with us again.

I was writing you a sec ago and the rude box blew it up. That's the second time today, so, I know it's really my bad. I visited SOUP recently and a pic of a stunning woman caught my eye. It was / is your current pic. Look for a mess from me ... Thank you for such a warming word-hug ... CayCay

I felt this write. Right in the gut. And a bit in the tear ducts too. Hugs! xomo

I have never intentionally or otherwise thought to rhyme gut with tear ducts, but that's not the main take away from your generous emotional response. I am hugging you ... CayCay

I tried using Brevity to clearly, minimally tell you how good it felt to see you here and then there again. I look forward to some Jan-crafted laughter. Thank you ever much for such emphatic, gentle concern .. Hugs ... CayCay

You suffered a nervous breakdown due to a home invasion? Goodness. Hope your recovery continues

After reading your comment, I read the poem and laughed. Darned if one verse doesn't read as though we'd been pillaged. CayCay
