Ah Lauren I forgot to put the name of the song, and you are right! It is "I Will Always Love You" originally done by Dolly Parton then, Whitney Houston, and it was playing on my CD so I wrote this at the same time! Thank you. ~I always have time to listen to someone talking from their heart~ [This message has been edited by Mysteria (edited 10-11-2001).] |

Another beauty. Wonderful. (I thought it was first sung by Dolly Parton? I could be wrong, wouldn't be the first, or last LOL) Heather (CherokeeGirl) Without the experiance of love where would we be? We would have no memories to cherish. With love it brings hurt with hurt bittersweet memories. [This message has been edited by Heather Miller (edited 10-11-2001).] |

Enchantress ~ Glad you liked and it is always sad when a man never realizes what he left behind for greener pastures isn't it? Dee ~ Stick around, there is some fabulous poetry coming up about one a minute now! LOL, seriously there are so many good writers in here, I pale in comparison but that you. Heather ~ You are absolutely right, but you get no prize lol, it was even Dolly Parton that wrote it, and how could I forget that. She is one the greastest songwriters of this era. Thanks I fixed the post. |

Sharon I was actually referring to the song I wish you love by Barbara S, I think....you know the one...*L* I never even thought of I will always love you...but now that you mention it....I can hear it playing in the background.... Lauren I keep my ideals, because in spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart. Anne Frank 09*12*01 [This message has been edited by Greeneyes (edited 10-12-2001).] |

Mysteria, This poem really touched me. I feel your longing.....the "not knowing why". I also understand you still wishing love to this confused and confusing spirit. Lovely, Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

I don't know why I left you, girl. I must have lost my head! I let a girl with golden curls Kidnap my heart, instead! I didn't know she had tattoos And thick hair down her back. She spends the night chug-luggin' booze And drinks beer by the pack! Her belches would make foghorns weep She never takes a bath... Woe be to any kindred soul Encountering her wrath. She likes to bring her whips and chains When we get in the sack... So, if you mean the things you say, For God's sake.. |

Sharon this is achingly beautiful... very touching writing... and the last lines show both a heart and door still open. lovely writing poetess M... and LOL@ Balladeer.... only he could make us smile when reading a sad poem. When your own emptiness is all that's getting through |

I was going to say something sweet and nice about this poem, which I really like, but then I read the Balladeer's post, and I'm still picking myself up...picturing you in his poem. ROTFLMAO over and over again. |

Nightshade ~ LOL... that "longing" was the story of my life actually, three times, so now I have learned (and I meet their Mother first) Martie ~ Thank you, and today you made me really smile with your poetry dear friend. Lady of Shallot ~ Bitterness is not a way to ever end love, for it was a good thing to have loved, even once. Thank you. Sunshine ~ Would you ever wish anyone any less? I think not, and I thank you. ~*~ now....Balladeer! I don't know why you left me boy, you must have lost your head, to let a girl on a motorbike, kidnap your heart, instead! Her tattoos are really gross, and I'm laughing 'bout her back. I never knew a biker girl yet, couldn't drink beer by the pack! You see I set you up my "deer" and that there is my sister, she's the black sheep of our family, and I sicked her on you mister! She's beyond whips and chains when she gets you in her sack... You deserve all that you get, Forget it...Don't come back! This was great fun ~ ~ Thanks for the great poem Balladeer! |

Hi! Sharon, I can see how you would have been inspired by this great picture. . and wonderful melody. I also hear that from a broken heart only pieces of love can be poetically expressed... and I'm sure you've picked up those pieces more then once. But, to be honest with you... Whomever let you go, was some crazy, insane dude anyway... not deserving of your love. Just my 2 cents worth.. Maggie ((~.~) |

What a touchingly beautiful poem. You have penned my feelings here, and done it with such grace I might add. And as for those other two poems by you and Baladeer...well, I'm just splitting my sides laughing. So on that note I'm going to bed If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

I like your poem...it's really super Although you fed me to a Booper. I shoulda known right when I kissed her And split my lip she was your sister. Now she's become a real bounty Since I have learned to be her "mountie". |

Maggie ~ Trust me no one ever left, I got them first! lol, but I did pick up the pieces to only do it again. Thanks for your wonderful words. Tracey ~ Thank you for being serious for one minute on this poem. I am glad we made you smile, that makes it all worthwhile, lol. Mountie Balladeer You're now her mountie you say? Do you remember Dudley do right? Well okay...better remember to use your flashlight at night!!! [This message has been edited by Mysteria (edited 10-12-2001).] |

Mysteria-- This was so very beautiful. Aching and longing in its sincerity. I tried very hard not to cry when I read this...but tears fell anyways. That is a good thing though. LOL @ Baladeer--where do you come up with this kind of stuff kind Sir. Thank you for the laughs though--seems this place could do with one or two here lately! Take care. Amy "I could kiss you in |

Krista ~ I sent you links to graphics, and info - have fun! Kit ~ We aim to please! Glad it entertained you this morning! Elizabeth ~ If I cheered you some, well then you also have made my day. Amy ~ This was to be a heartbreaker but you know Balladeer he had to do this to me, and let's face it we all need a laugh once in a while. I will get him back Lady in White ~ Tears of laughter are always nicer than those of sorrow aren't they? Thank you all for having some fun! ~I always have time to listen to someone talking from their heart~ |

I am LMAO!!!!! Sharon...I read your beautiful poem, found myself wiping a tear or two, as I always do being the emotional wimpus that I am...(but, of course, you've seen that part of me in person, so you already know that)... and then...I read the comments, and found myself laughing so hard I was crying again. This should be placed in the "Passion's Hall of Fame"...for sure! I love it! Hugs and much love to you, ~*~dawn~*~ |

You're Passions friends, so true, But this was just a simple, love poem, that I tried to write for you. See, she's my younger sister, learned her tricks from the best, So if Balladeer is playing "mountie" That boy's gonna need a "rest"!!! Thank you all for your fun comments. This was fun! |

I loved this song before I ever lived it. *S* And your poem speaks for so many, Mysteria... if you truly love, you wish them forever in love's shelter... even if the arms aren't your own... and even if the smiles waver through tears. This was going into my library even before the giggle brigade got started. *G* As for Bal.... dern it... you promised not to TELL!!!! Big sis don't wantcha back... you're stuck now! LOL |

Suthern ~ ahhhh...well, if truth be told, I too lived this one, and set someone free I loved very much for his own good at the time, and yes, you want them in love, even if it is not with you, but it aches forever. Thanks for commenting (and sorry this rather sad poem got to be a 3-ring circus didn't it) ~I always have time to listen to someone talking from their heart~ |

Vicky - where you been girl? Thanks for reading this one, we had a lot of fun with it, and our buddy Baladeer turned my sad song, into a boop boop de doop! Try giving your smile to someone who doesn't have one, and I bet someone will come along and give you another. |
