Mea Culpa

An apology for my slowness in returning reviews.

Feel like

I owe you

Big time.

Yet struggle

To return your favour

Back.

Not sure

If it's another sign

Of my fight

With depression.

As words become

Meaningless cyphers

To me.

Unable to focus

Upon the printed screen

Before my sadden eyes

With your verse.

Except

I need to do

So.

To keep

The balance

Between reader

And reviewer.

Reviews

Ah, dear Therisa, I feel so sad to read this and to hear about your anguish, really I wish you all the very best, emotions and even crisis situations can change and move on with the weather ( not to underestimate what you are going through) lol

[therisa]

Thank you, Sheema, for your support.

I don't know. I think reviewing like writing ebbs and flows. I related to this though. I don't think its depression. Maybe its more akin to irritation. At least that is how I feel. You cannot give when you are empty.

[therisa]

Thank you, Tammy, for your thoughtful response.

Hmm. I can understand the tanks being empty, Tammy, but how does this relate to irritation, on my part?

[TL Boehm]

I don't see you as irritated. i see myself as irritated.

[therisa]

Oh, sorry. Trade you, hot flashes for your irriatability?

[TL Boehm]

:) Ah, hot flashes!

[therisa]

Deal?
