so what if ive never had a girl
       to kiss and hug
        and be in love

  so what if my life is a mess
       the problems been
          my shyness

   then the females on the net
       play me for a fool

  who cares if ive never kissed
    i don't really care at all
    all i care about is myself
coz thats the only thing i have

It's all about choices...

"all i care about is myself

sounds to me like knowing you are most important to yourself and caring for yourself is your top priority and I think that's a good place to be.....

It is sad to see you so bitter. You are a marvellously imaginative writer, but an attitude such as you are displaying with this post can dry that up--and the possibility of making new friends or someone to love you back.

I can sense the pain and frustration in your angry words. I hope that you at least found it cathartic to vent those feelings.

Peace, Love, & Light,
Earth Angel

RedStone EB,
Yeah, pity parties are rarely that effective. Courage...

Sometimes when we look outside ourselves, and put aside our pain, and imagined anger, we find a wealth of growth...

slog through it...we'll be here when you're ready....

It was good to read your reply. I am glad that it was just you blowing off some steam. We all need to vent at some time or other. Keep on writing and expressing yourself. We are here for you--and we also get to read the fruits of your fertile, fantazzmagorical, imagination!

Warm hugs,

Thank you for sharing yourself so lovingly with us. It's not a must after all! To write from dreams is wonderful. The intensity of dreams can exceed reality. We see the results in the most beautiful poetry of all times.
Love, Margherita

Well at least you are honest, but be careful not to bite the hands that care....

Through the darkness
I can see your light
And you will always shine
And I can feel your heart in mine

I will remember you

Lee, i know you mean well, but i can't help thinking you're going about this the wrong way.

Saying things like "try reading my work for once" will rub people up the wrong way, and are more likely to do the opposite, not read any at all.

No one HAS to read anyones poetry, we are here, posting and sharing because of our love of poetry. If we were expected to read and reply to every single post from a certain person, as well as others, we'd be falling asleep at our computers!

Though everyone is encouraged to read and reply to others poetry as much as they post.
Which i will encourage you to do too, get a feel for the place, read other peoples poetry, reply, get to know how this place works.

i'm sure many people do read and enjoy your poems. replies are not everything. I can guarantee more people read your poems than you think, sometimes people may not reply because they don't quite know what to say, or they may not have enough time to reply to all the poems they may want to.

you complain that the people who reply arent giving you the replies you want. Perhaps if you want more in depth replies you should post a few in critique, as well as in here.

I know you want people to enjoy your poetry, and we do, but dont force people upon it, because then they're not going to get as much enjoyment out of it are they?

Lee i hope you don't feel i've attacked you in any way, but just chill out, and forget about the amounts of replies, theyre just numbers, enjoy your love of sharing poetry, then you may feel more at ease, and you'll make some good friends here!

love gem

Hello from me, midnitesun. Sometimes I have time to read and reply, sometimes not. Hope today is a bit brighter for you, poet friend.
And no need to rush Love, it comes and gets you when its your turn.

Hey, I'm naturally shy, too. But so was Emily Dickinson. She was a lot shyer than you or I am. And she touched the lives of millions.

Live life GIVING, and you'll have no regrets. None. That's the only way to live, and you'll leave and impression on the lives of others.

Hey, everybody gets their feelings hurt every now and then....so don't feel so bad about it.

About the replies, you can't really look at the numbers, because lots of people read poetry that really don't know what to reply. Do you reply to every poem that you read? I don't...for different reasons....mostly because I don't know what to say sometimes. The longer a person is here, the more people get to know them and the more they reply to them.

Thanks for sharing your poems with us, by the way.
Ethel
