No rights…. for hope for happily ever after for time from you. No rights…. to the tears to the fears to the broken I feel. No rights… to be hurt to be forgiven to be special because of it. No rights…. to love to be loved where I am. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

Hi, Susan. It's not right to have no rights! ~ at least, the 'good' rights! ~ I'd pass on the 'bad' rights like tears and fears and hurt... But it certainly is your right to love and be loved!   Linda |

None of us have rights. The key is to have as few wrongs as possible.  |

I loved the flow of this and the power and possibility for change in the last line Susan. It reminds me that one has a choice to move on from where they are. Much enjoyed. Best wishes, /Kit |

I once gave directions to someone which was mostly a thinly veiled composition of "right" turns. I told the dummy, just "follow my directions and you'll see something familiar." He did. And he did see something familiar. It was ME, lmao. That's right, I sent the poor twit in a circle! In boxing, I would suggest to lead with a strong right. Upper cut with the left. I have no idea what I'm talking about. But if you take I10 West, you'll find me along the way.  |

Dear Susan, you rendered your moment of "no rights" powerfully. I believe of course that LOVE is our birthright. When we feel unloved and unable to love, our direction needs some adjustment. It's in our power and you will use it, no doubt. Love, Margherita |

this bites with a familiar theme sad to say you speak from that deep ache |

I know this poem I tell you, but Susan can you believe that Karen? Honestly she missed her calling I tell you. She should be on the Comedy Channel. ((hugs)) time makes it all better, and we earn the right to be wrong. |

You are 'right' on with this poem, no pun intended. Thumbs up. Ok, a little bit intended. |

A sad sad poem dear Susan and I surely feel for you. Everyone has the right to love and be loved but sometimes we have to change our outlook somewhat before things drop into place. Good luck my dear, love. Lindsay |
