I have read a lot of poems, trying to look for a simple way of portraying so much inner meaning. I believe that by reading this, I have found an answer...

I loved reading this poem and the explanation that goes with it because it lets me know that I'm not alone in my situation and confusion. It all sounds very familiar to me...

Angelique

I think you are damn right

Ron Carnell, You wrote this poem very well. Whoever you wrote it to must feel very special. You have a talent, don't let it go to waste!

someone once said that words can never do emotions justice but poetry was the closest thing to it. This poem proves that point, sometimes saying what words can't do to portray feelings displays them in the best way.

Though its short, it touches me, espicialy a men of action and a men of few words .Every single word means a thousands paragraphs.

I once read that "meaning" is what is between the words. This poem is packed with meaning. I love it.

As I read this poem.... I really started to feel the words. I have read other poems by this author and I see and admire the gift that he shares. Keep doing your thing Ron.

This poem is wonderful and describes just how I feel about my best guy friend. Although he is in a relationship and tells all of his girlfriends up front about the relationship we have, I feel that I am slowly loosing him.

This poem inspired me so much that I enlaged and printed it so that everytime I wake up, I can look up and read it. To understand this stupid act you would have to know that the only guy that I ever loved moved away just before Christmas and I wish that I could tell him all these things but he won't know how sincere I am because he's not here!

Ron, you have such a gift of words. PLease dont ever stop writting.

Grace

This poem is amazing. I've often thought exactly what you've put down on paper but have been unable to word it the way you have. It's a terrible feeling to have, that loving someone so much can be a bad thing. I totally understand.
