  • 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

I cry

But not because I’m weak

Not because I’m fragile

Not because I’m empty



I cry

But that doesn’t mean I’m in pain

Doesn’t mean I’m dying

Doesn’t mean I will not smile again



I cry because I care

Because I’m willing to be broken

I don’t care what others think

Don’t care what they may say

‘Cause these tears are beautiful

To me
wow...I never thought I'd say this, but this is my second attempt at writing a poem. I would love your comments!

The quote was, "Not all tears are of evil"

and I hadn't thought of that at all when I wrote this ^_^

lol..you try remembering LOTR quotes w/a 2y/o squirming in your lap and w/a 5 yearl old brandishing a light saber behind you. :p

Anyway, that's the first thing I thought when reading your poem.
