Question: Do you suffer from infestation!?
Like a dog
scratching at fleas
the heart knows
infestation
the taped message of
lies told
yet believed
becomes your truth
it plays over
and over again
the voice reminds you
of worthlessness
and shame
you did nothing to own
that innocent child
now adult
still scratching the
infestation!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

that's awesome!.!.!.i totally get this one!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I interpret this as one who has been left behind as a child but still looks for the hope in lies told long ago!. It is sad they can not move on but need to do just that!. Well done and hope I have read it correctly!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No, I don't suffer from infestation!.
Another nice poem (though you might want to separate stanzas , as it's awkward between the lines "you did nothing to own" and "that innocent child")!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It never completely
goes away
it removes itself unpredictably
almost fades away
but always
always
returns
whether a rainy or a cloudy or a sunny day
then thoughts return
yes the same ones immediately
how to RID that infestation
once and for all
before you turn too gray!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
