Array ( [sid] => 71693 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => An Open Letter [time] => 2004-11-16 00:23:53 [hometext] => Life... man's final frontier... these are the continuing journeys of a poet name kidpoet_213... My continuing mission... to explore strange things I do and to seek out old probs making them right... To boldly go where no person dares to go... apologize! [bodytext] => Dear Fellow Poets...

Yepperz... here I go again...
Probably steppin' my foot into it BIG TIME
This time around... but oh... well... can't be helped...
I got some things to say... so you had better listen up...
I will not repeat myself...

One lousy comment this morning...
Made for one lousy day...
It set me off on the tangent of sayin' goodbye... so long... I'm outta here
Maybe this is where I can backstep...
But it hasn't been 7 days... 7 hours... maybe
I've hurt people by my hasty actions...
I've said some things I really didn't mean

Maybe... you're all correct in your assumptions of me?
I was pretty upset... with my poem being ripped apart at its very seams
And drove insane... at every possible chance... by everyone's opinions on suicide and cuttin'
I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs...
If you all don't do it or have never been through it... then u don't know what you're talkin' about
SHUT THE FRACKIN" UP!
Sorry... I just had to vent my frustration...
Ain't that why some of us write in the first place?

You know... the one thing I could care less about is how many people read my stuff or how many comments I get
WHOOPIE DOO!
If you don't read it... you don't read it...
But the one thing that gets me...
More than anything...
Is people shovin' their frackin' opinions down my throat
Another thing is when people ripped perfectly good poems apart
I don't treat your creations that way
If I don't like a particular poem...
I simply don't comment...
It ain't worth my time to sit here and rip someone's heart out
Because I didn't like what they had to say...

I think... in my time on here
I may have ripped 3 maybe 4 poems
I just don't feel right about doin' that
Because I feel we all have a responsibility toward each other...
To build one another up...
Not tear each other apart...
Show a little compassion on your fellow man...
Let he who is without sin... cast the first stone
I can't... can you?

All I want to do is encourage...
Anyone I can...
Anyone who can read...
Anyone who can hear...
My voice is speakin' loud and clear!!!

To all my friends on this site
Yepperz... you know who you are
Can you find it in your heart to forgive me?
I have wronged you all with my rage and anger...
Whether you realize it or not...
I flipped out...
I totally frackin' lost it!

I've got a crack in my armor...
I'm only human too!
I let satan sneak in and attack... when I wasn't lookin'
He robbed me of my joy... and almost my soul tonight...
And how I chose to deal with it...
I know it wasn't right!

And the one thing that really hurts the most...
I've hurt one person that I love... more than anything in this world
And I can't show her my love...
I can't hug her tight...
I can't hold her close...
I can't kiss her cheek...
I can't touch her hand...
I can't see her beautiful face...
I can't look into her hazel eyes...
All I can do is hear her voice on a telephone line...
And stare at her photograph...
I've lost something... tonight that I'll never get back
God knows... I've hurt her real bad...
And I'll have to live with that... for the rest of my life

You know... all within the span of a day...
In my heart... I've become like a washed up... burnt out... no account has been...
Tryin' to make a comeback... if I can?
Take all of this however you want...
I think... I am gonna take a break...
Just to clear my head...
Take this letter for what you believe it to be...
Signed...

That was very intense. And to the point. Very well written and heart felt.

And there is nothing wrong with admitting you have made a mistake. God knows I have make enough. Not to mention doing stupid things when I was hurt. You have said exactly what I have felt in the last several weeks. For the same reason. I hope you get over it easier than I have.

Thank you for sharing this. I appreciate it. Maybe it will help me.
