    Hi dagmar nice to see your name again :) the title here is very different as I think being overwhelmed with emotion shows that you are truly ‘one’ with that emotion if that makes sense ie truly sad, shocked etc…
    1) The image here is one which I can truly relate to ‘only crying when home alone’ in the comfort of my bedroom walls where they listen and don't judge me (or atleast I don't think they do) the first line is a very vivid opening line and one which caught my mind as it shows you've been trying to be strong throughout the day and one ‘home alone’ the valleys have opened saturating your cheeks.
    2) We've all been burnt I'm sure and if we say we haven't then I'm positive that we are either lying or will be in the future, unfortunately. None of us can fix anything, we just have to move onwards and upwards or atleast try our best to learn from those mistakes me make.
    3) This ‘moment’ you speak of here to me feels as though you are speaking of the time you're alone when you've finished work got home or your family have been and gone and you have time to yourself and reality hits you because you've taken off the ‘mask’ you've worn all day and you no longer have to hide which unfortunately makes things hit harder, the emotions dwell more inside and when things can truly go wrong and when we have to admit to ourselves and to others that we're not OK because Dagmar; “it's OK to not be OK sometimes” and I'm here if you need an ear as I have 2.
    4) This makes me very sad because you feel you have to hide how you feel as people seem to talk over you, people don't seem to notice you and I totally get that as I've been there so many times when I've felt outnumbered, where I've felt alone even in a room full of a dozen people and I've had to leave before I've literally lost it. That ending is a very powerful one but as I said earlier I'm here if you ever need me.
    Take care and all the best.

    Never blurred out my dear, simply waiting for people's eyes to focus.

    </3 This is really sad. It's hard when we can't contain our emotions anymore, where it will just take over you, when you can't take anything anymore. Well written! Take care, Ms. Dagmar. (:
