I Need That Strength Again

Poem 1 Minute

In crisis again,

My housemates’ boyfriend threatened me,

I was cleaning in the night,

To restore my sanity,

I can’t take it anymore,

It’s too stressful there,

Homeless again,

Trying to find somewhere.

Holy shit,

I’m fucked now,

And the police weren’t interested,

In the agression or the breaking of lockdown;

But it’s OK,

I’m staying calm,

Working on each problem,

One by one. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

I write poems which are mental health-themed, creative or humourous :). Within mental health I write a lot about: ADHD, OCD, anxiety, autism, emotional traumaβ€” usually with an optimistic slant. My goals for my blog are to give myself a therapeutic, creative outlet whilst also being able to connect with and relate to other people.

    1. Thank you πŸ’™ I am for now! I’m in my car and have food and water. Using tesco wifi. Council person is phoning me this afternoon at some pou. I was speaking to Cassa and a friend and my brother so doing a lot better now :). One hour at a time. I’m definitely not living in that house anymore, car would be better again at this point

      3. Good, I’m glad you’ve been speaking to people and are in touch with the council. They are fully aware of what’s been going on so I’m sure they will sort something out for you today. πŸ–€

  4. I know I don’t know you, but I just want to let you know that you are in my prayers, I know you’ll find a place to stay soon, you seem like a good person, just try to keep your head held high and try not to dwell on the negativity. It might be tough right now but there is perfection in every part of your journey, and you are also perfect just the way you are! Be safe πŸ’œ

  5. Robin, I feel terrible for you. Listen, you’re out of a bad place and that’s good, very good. Hassle the council. In a nice way, hassle them. They have people ringing up complaining about the wheels being loose on their wheelie bins! YOU are important! Keep safe and keep ringing them … Katie x

      2. Lmao! That’s depressing!!! That almost sounds like it should be a euphemism for brain not working.
