Most days

I don't mind

Being a girl

 

But sometimes

I just want

To scream

 

Feel great

On top of it all

For one hour

 

Feel down,

Knocked to the ground

For a day

 

Emotions, emotions

They run me dry

Till I'm parched

 

A deep breath

Will last me

A second

 

But it doesn't stop

The cycle

The roller coaster

 

Of emotions.

Nicely done. Well written.

It's no picnic on a man's side of the gender line either. Especially before the age of 30.

Happy trails,

Ed Bradley.

Beautiful Simplicity:

Just gave this a "I Like It" vote. To compensate for Booksie deleting all ratings assigned prior to October 1, 2007. To help you showcase your work to others. So that you may find a new audience along with recapturing your former following.

Will be doing this for all of your other postings as well. Just not all at once.

Happy trails,

Ed Bradley.

Thanks so much Ed! I hadn't been on here in while and I didn' even realize things had changed so drastically. When I get a chance I'll be reading more of your work also :)

Being a regular tomboy, I can still get quite emotional. "But sometimes, I want to scream"...
You should just scream, then. It's very therapeutic. Go outside and let out a big howl. Or, take a drive and scream in your car. It works for me.
