  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Again I cry

"The tears stain my face
The pain is crushing me alive

Again I bleed
The crimson flows down my arms
Why do inflect pain upon myself?

I live in this prison
That I have created for myself
I make my life what it is.
Why do I try to blame my pain on you?
I know it’s not your fault
I fall to my knees
I cover my face with my scarred wrists
I wipe my tears

I show you my back,
Scarred and ugly
The knife stings as it
Is driven into my back

I thought I could trust you!
You wait for me to turn away,
And you stab me
You stab me
You stab me

I fall to the ground,
How can I escape this prison?
How can I escape this prison
that I have created for myself?
The walls seem to close in on me
crushing me alive
I scream at the bars blocking my way
I am still trapped, living in the life
of pain I have created for myself

You can’t help me
You’re not a true friend
You stab my back adding to my pain
Why do you hate me?
What have I done to you?
I thought I could trust you!
I thoguht I could trust you!
You pretend to be my friend
then you break me down

My wrists are heavly scarred
When will the healing begin?
Who can help me?
Why am I still in this place?
Why do I still bleed?"

Very old. I wish I had put dates on my poems :-/
