I Come To You At Night I come to you at night And tell you all my desires All my thoughts of hopelessness About adventures through passion's fires I give you dreams of hope And of lessons I have learned About all my triumphs And about times I've been burned I'm glad I found a friend I could tell my secrets to Without worries of being judged I know that you'd never do You always make me smile You have that special way About you that comforts me Even on my saddest days So, for this I wish to thank you To all of you I say this I am forever greaful to you all For making Passion's what it is ****************************************** This is for everyone here. Thank you for always being so kind and tender, and for listening when we all need it most. All my love, Jeffrey [This message has been edited by Jeffrey Carter (edited 07-20-2000).] |

Sweetheart what can I say other than in the lonely darkened hours before the sun shall rise upon our face we seek within and talk of passions felt... Many is the hour I've woken up at dawn and shared the odd post.. HUGS |

Thank you for writing this, because you are right, we do tend to confide in our passion friends thoughts that we keep to ourselves. It is a warm and friendly place and you make that much more so with your wonderful poetry Liz |

Jeffrey, WOW!!! I LOVE THIS ONE!!!! I feel the same way about Passions and the wonderful people here. It is an awesome place!!!! Excellent writing my friend!! LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

Way to go Jeff, A great tribute to this place without walls and often without faces, BUT with lots of more important things like love and sharing and caring, openess and loving honesty. Great poem. Linda M. |

I would like to thank you all again. You have all taught me so much about writing and life in general. I wouldn't even be on the net if PiP didn't exist. I have said before and I say it again I LOVE THIS PLACE and every one of you. I have been a bit distenced from here lately, but it was only because I chose to take a break from the net and concentrate more on my writing. I am in the middle of writing , possibly, a novel, but I think it will be more of a short story. Anyway, Thank you's go out to all of you again. Yes, even you Christopher LOL The best and most beaytiful things in the world cannot be seen or touched...but are felt in the heart (Helen Keller) |
