I accept your grammar "problems" if you would just hold a hug for the while I read your poem a second time. O.K.? : ) Even if only a tough or evil poem, I wish I could have read one poem that was written for me. I hear the nicest things said in my comment boxes and letter over the last two years, and especially on THIS site, but have no idea what a poem to ME looks like. Reading this poem and the other ones to your mom, an ex, and yourself... is pretty endearing and eye-opening to see such passion poured into those moments of fear and levity with release when you were writing your pieces, Gabby!! : ) *Big Hugzz* So, I accept any silly grammar mistakes, but only in the grasp of a selfish hug of mine that I may seek. : ) This line broke my heart: "You make me want to hang myself". Even if it were just "words", someone may read this, side with you, and try this for THEM!! I have lost about 69+ friends to murder, suicide, and ODing. I have walked in on about 3 hangings from friends, and it wasn't their death faces that stick with me, or their curled up purple hands gripping their palms, or their bloated lips and bulged eyes, or even the fact that they decided to cut themselves or stab their bellies so much that it turned to mush from the punishment before their hangings. It was that I could still hear their ropes and threads being stretched as they hung with that weight! I think I really like you, and I am not so lucky to just be able to walk across the street, give you a hug, and go home. Nope..... I don't get to be that lucky. Some of the coolest "if not all, I guess" ...people I have met live so far away from me, and I have lost between 15 and 20 sine I have been writing poetry in the last two years to suicide. So, that is a tough line to read from you. I have been here for about 6-7 months now, so don't think that some of those 15-20 are NOT from this site, Gabby...... Keep writing. Write ANYTHING!! xoxox -Mark
