your poem really touched my heart and made me think of the good man i found and the things he has done for me

val

A beautiful poem, so many people look for that one special person in their life and seem to never find it. But sometimes when you least expect it the love you have searched for all your life can suddently appear. I know this to be true. So to all of you who have been searching for your true love, dont give up - it can happen.

Katie

Beautifully written. Beautifully said.

Steph

I REALLY LOVE YOUR POEM, JEWEL!

crissy

i really loved your poem, i made me think about how much someone did for me and that i have never really thanked him for giving me the something i thought was lost, he gave me myself back.keep waiting girl you have a way with words and away to express what some of us have felt or our feeling now

pashen

I was simply beautiful, reminds m of myself and what i hope to find one day

Debs

My word, never has a poem affected me so much and brought me to tears like this did coz, you see, it could have been written for me! I met my partner online whom I love and cherish with all my heart and this poem is how I would describe him and our love for each other.

nazak

Your poem has given me hope, hope of someday finding a guy like that. Thank you and please keep writing it was beautiful.

Absolutly wonderful.

Michelle

Fantastic, totally sums up how i am feeling towards my partner

Stacy

I looked and looked for that right poem to send to the one who has truly showed me more than anyone in my life, and I found that in "What he's done for me". No one has never taken the time to allow me to be me. It was alway's them that had to be first, and there feeling's that mattered. What my boyfriend has done for me is show me that I do matter and so do my feeling's, and that made it possible for me to unbury all the hurt and pain so that I can love again and that there is such a thing out there as LOVE!

Chelsea

wonderful penned.

Jewel

It was December '99 when this poem was posted here on Passions. It wasnt until tonight, 11 months later, that I realized I could read everyones comments about this poem. I had no idea I would touch people's lives with what I thought was on of my "simpliest" poems. I was always told by friends and family that I had a special talent for writing, especially poetry. It wasnt until tonight that I believed what they have tried to tell me all these years. What each of you wrote touched me deeply and brought tears to my eyes! To say "Thank You" would be putting it mildly. I will indeed continue to write and post here on Passions, and hope that those poems will be enjoyed as much as this one. Thanks again to all of you, God Bless, and may you indeed find that "special someone."

Tiara

This poem is beautiful. This is exactly how I feel for my fiance. He's changed my life so much in the past 2 years. Keep writing!

Jewel, never hide your gift from God to touch people lives with your words and your feelings. Such a rare gift should never be wasted. Our world is your canvas and your words the colors. Always close...

Christie

that was simply awesome and extremely well written. you deserve a medal or something for that work. needless to say i loved it!

Classy

Jewel, you truly have the gift of expression. I have someone in my life today that reflects the same level of loving that you write about. He lets me know I am not alone. Thank you for your gift of words and for helping me to realize all that I have. I will watch for more from you. God's Blessings Always, ~Classy~

Teresa

I think this poem tells a lot and I think if people who are lonely could read it, they may realize that there is someone out there for all of us. Sometimes it just takes a while to find but once you find it all of the past pain seems to fade away. WONDERFUL poem!

I have searched and searched for the right words to say to the one I love. This a wonderful peom that exactly expresses how I really feel. Thank you so much Jewel, keep up the great work :)

Brian

Yo, this poem is tight. The author sounds like she was experiencing the same things my girlfriend was. I feel like I helped her a lot, so I can realate to this poem.

luke

Jewel, have always thought your work was good. You can tell whether the author is full of it or if it came from the heart. Yours is the later. That to me is the most important part, and why it may be hard for others to appreciate other poeles work. They have to be able to relate to it, or know from what the author has written what he/she had gone through. You pulled it off well. congrats!

Jillian

spoken from the heart,a woman who has found herself through love and understanding. credit to her and her partner.

David

Excellent!

I love this. it made me cry. So much of it is true to me. If Richard ever reads this message I want to thank him, I love him so much. he means the world to me. beautiful work by the author.

leann

I love the poem i've read.It reminds of myself and how i felt for so long until recently I got engaged to the most wonderful man then found out we were having a child together. I never thought i would find true love ii was always playing second best next to everyone but now this man has showed me how to love and how to really and truelly be loved.So for me it's no more second best,
