I suppose that I should feel desperate
that friends have betrayed me
behind the scenes
passing along their judgements
but I knew all along
so there is no sense hurting
over something I have accepted.
My words are here
all my truths on this page
my views wrapped in words
my passion
pain
sadness
joy
and endurance
trapped in this place.
I have more heart
than all those who hide
only peaking out to spread their claws.
I will write
I will love
and the undercurrent of betrayal
will not be enough
to drown my determination.

You could hurt me with your bare hands. You could hurt me using the sharp edge of what you say. JEWEL

Let nothing dissuade you
Write on!
I don’t know the reason for this
but I am well acquainted with the tone

Jenn, I have always admired you for writing
so open and honestly..this one is no exception.
You speak from your heart...

Count me as -STILL FRIEND- with nothing to hide~
You shoot a pretty straight arrow gal ... me too~
Now let it fall where it may ...
while we duck into the bushes and watch them pull arrows out of their hinny's~

As was pointed out to me ... we don't SEE what we really see~
Don't know 'bout you ... but I'm heading for the Optometrist's office ! Tee-Hee !

Sending a big *Hug* your way~

I also have no idea what this write is about, but chalk it up to jealousy...and remember you are the best you, you can be, and if others can't handle it, then too bad for them.

Hugss, if you need one

Well, Temptress, I also have no idea what you are talking about or who you are talking to...but that is just as well.

I would like to say that I have liked every one of your poems I have read. Sometimes I don't leave a reply because I don't know what to say. I have noticed that you always speak your heart and that is very good. I also speak my heart.

I do leave you a hug...and it is from the heart, too.

You definitely have heart... and talent! *S* There seems to be a sad story behind this... I can only appreciate the words I see... and ask that you keep writing. *S*

Thank you.

betrayal and lies ... two things I cannot tolerate!

The old childhood rhyme ... sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never harm me ... is not true ... WORDS are the most powerful substance in the universe.

I am glad you took the opportunity to voice your OWN words here.

I am with you girl friend!
