There's nothing as "disempowering as losing a friend. May god love and protect us vulnerable women, that we never become so self-assured, that we feel we have the right to pick and choose who is "worthy" of friendship

Jes

Your poem was pretty sad cos you lost someone you cared about, i know how that feels. But the only thing in the poem I didn't like was the harvest part. You went on a bit.

Cindy

This poem relates so much to me because my friend,my hero, had a great impact in my life but because of my mother we grew distant.

Kim

I losed my coach a couples years ago and she was the world to me. She was the one person that could relate with us all kids when no one else cared. About 2 days later one of my teachers was in a car accident and had passes away also. There had been people in our school that got in car accidents and were killed and on 6,7,02 my best friend was killed in a car accident and i miss her much. Your poem really helped. Never stop writing.

You're prayer says so much to me. I love the way you wrote it and it truly is a wonderful very spiritual poem. I am dealing with the loss of my bestfriend and your poem speaks almost every word in my heart. Thanks!

I lost a friend at 16 to Cancer. I will be sharing this poem with some friends at a local cancer walk that we are doing today. Thank you for helping me remember that we can go on, and they can too.

Brenda

Beth

I to have had an experience like that with a friend who was very dear to me. I thought this poem was exactly what I felt about my situation,but I could never explained it like that.

Mandy

Wow I think you put a lot of feeling in this poem. And i know what you are talking about becuase i went throught the exact same thing three years ago. Me and my best friend got into a really big fight and it was all my fualt. We didnt talk for almost two years. And i tried everything to get her back in my life. But time just took it's own path. As that later year went on we no longer exsisted to eachother. Now everything is ok in my life. We have become BEST friends again. i know th if you really want your friend. time will take it's own path as it did for me and eventually get you back on track with you friend! You just need hope and god in your life. Your poem really showed alot of heart and alot emotion. I score you a perfect 10!

wow. it touched us deep down inside in a place that no other poem has ever touched before. tears were streaming down our faces, as other people in the library were laughing at us. but we didn't care, all we cared about was the poem we had just read. it was fantastic, never stop writing . ever .
