I am not normally this way
I am bright and bubbly
I interact, make others laugh
The last few weeks have changed me
I’m a fish out of water wanting air
bumping into corners
I want to fit in but feel I’m not
feel that a friendship has been lost
why do I feel this way, what can I say
A friendship of many years
is struggling to survive and I don’t
have a fix it button
I feel alienated though perhaps
I am to blame, for my way of thinking
is different, has pride got in the way
I want it mended to heal so I can be me
that others will let me join in
but I’m a fish for now
without a fix it button

This really touched for me. There have been plenty times in my life that I wish I had had a fix button.
I think we all need at one point of other – I am glad it spoke to you.
hmmm, ok, poem or true thoughts/feelings?
pushing the castle to the side
my round globe now full of space
smiles greet you as I motion
willing to share my water with you
so we can peek out at the world together
and stick out our tongues and giggle too.
fix buttons are always there
some are hidden cleverly
some in plain sight but missed
we must always seek them though
or change the batteries a new
but sticking out tongues is just so fun too. 🙂
you made me smile as you seem to do 🙂 Thank you sweetheart and as for the words…true 😦 but today was a small step which I shall write about after answering everyone. Thank you Amb xxx
awww, *hugs tight*
Losing friendships is so hard. Like a fish out of water, sometimes I don’t fit in.
Yes sometimes we just flail gasping for air, hopefully this friendship can start again, thank you Alice and for popping in. x
I wish I had a fix it button too Mumsy, so many times, I’ve been too frank, too honest and then I think that’s who I am, do I really want to fix it?
Yes it is difficult something that should be said are said harshly…that is what I am going through right now.. and after knowing this person for 15 years it’s a little more than tough 😦 hopefully I can explain more soon. Thank you Shamz xxx
I need a fix it button at work, a fix it button at home, and a fix it button out in the world. I say what I think and before I even say it others can read it on my face and in my body language. I try to say things nicely, but sometimes you just have to be direct. Not all friends/co-workers/family find this to be an endearing quality. You on the other hand seem like a lovely person:)
Ahh body language – that’s what started this yesterday and why I had to write. Thank you for saying what you have Beck, I hope I am a nice person..I guess I can only wait and see. Are you a Virgo? 🙂 xx
Saggitarius:) I hope things are better!
it’ll get better! sorry for your struggles .. sucks
Thank you sweet – I loved that shot of you btw. Yes that’s the best word for it – sucks.

Hey Mumsy! Hugs first… It’s hard when long term friendships dissolve. I hope your able to save it! Don’t let pride interfere! Hugs you…..Paula xxxx
It’s a bit of pride a touch of stubbornness and a little ‘you don’t know how I feel’…or perhaps a lot of you don’t know how I feel- but I am trying to mend. Thanks babes. xxx
Super dooper hugs!! xxxxxxxxxxxx
Audra – I’ve never heard of her lol 😦
*gives you a hug*
Apologizes for my late comment.
But reading this…I know why tis written. Just know that life will bring people into your life…even whilst some may leave. Just do not shut the door tight … one day she may step though again.
That is ok honey – I have taken some small steps and hopefully though things may never been the same again may mend a little. Time will indeed only tell. Thank you xxxx
Beck that surprised me – as it’s the Virgo’s that are direct in this world. 😉 With such a lovely smile I can’t believe that you would ever be harsh 🙂 xx
