~~~~~~
As we write our hearts
in our poetry
Will the ones of us who read
take the time to see

The hurt or confusion
inside the writer may feel
Sometimes not fantasy
but aches that are real

I'm speaking not of times
that we write about
When thinking of our Love
so much we laugh and shout

But speaking of the times
when feeling from deep inside
That it would feel much better
to run away and hide

I know that to myself
these words do surely speak
And not only to others
the thoughts would seem to seek

For I want to truly feel
others words in my heart
Then maybe I can help with
an encouraging word to start

A tender and loving heart
seems everyone has here
Writing not always with a smile
but sometimes with a tear

Beautiful write Ethel...
Yes there are many who write here of sadness.
I think that the members of the Passion's family
are compassionate and caring listeners.
Hopefully many who are unhappy have been
helped in some small way by other members.

(smiles) God Bless You, sweet friend, this made me smile so much and also tear up as you are a gorgeous and loving soul and I too believe it is important to share tears when one is feeling blue to show compassion and let them know they feel special! (big hugggsssssss) This is lovely, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Oh yes, Ethel, sometimes we do write with a tear, as love has many faces, and some of them cry....loved this one, dear friend! ~S~

Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart ~S~

Ahh darn...how true that is. We do listen better when it is written with a tear. I love the poem garysgirl. You did a wonderful job here. The title totally hooked me into the reading even before I noticed it was written by you. That was just the frosting on the cake. Wonderful job.

Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history!

Ethel...Very tender write.Enjoyed.
I've learned during my stay here at PIP that many people expose their hearts and souls to all of us and for the most part we all care deeply for each other.
Thanks for sharing...Paul

I like it because its the truth, poor and clear and if only more people on the world would open up to see others as you do but also to allow others to see you from inside ya heart.

We all mostly have a heart full of questions without answers, and answers without questions sometimes we open and sometimes we hide it, but if we want it there is always a smile, or maybe just a smiling tear.

I would anytime let you tell a story of mine smile
