  • 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

(un-finshed(?) poem. last update: 11/20/03 12:56am)
Stabbed one too many times by the rusty blade of your knife.
My heart can no longer heal.
Damaged…
Scarred and uggly…
Cold and dead…

Look me in the eyes, and tell me the truth!
What do you see?
Who do you see?
Who am I?
Can you see into my soul?
Can you see what’s in my heart?
Can you it’s scarred and bleeding?
Do you understand that it’s people like you who stab me?
Do you understand why it’s so hard for me to find trust?

You’ve stabbed me one to many times with your rusty knife,
Cutting deep into my heart.
I’d never let you know the pain you’ve caused,
but it’s there, burning like a fire, cutting away at all I am.

Look deep into my eyes, my dark brown eyes, blood shot, and crying.
Tell me…
Tell me…
Do you love me?
Do you hate me?
Do you trust me?
Can I trust you?

I gasp for breath, and through my tears I manage to say…
I love you!
I want to be with you!
My heart, allthough scarred and bleeding, needs you.
Healing might hurt, but I’m ready.
Please tell me…
tell me…

Tell me you’ll be there when I need you.
Tell me I can trust you.
Tell me you love me.

I want to try again!
I want to heal!
Scars will fade, pain will cease.
Nothing matters when I’m with you.
I want to be with you.

There's a boiling cauldron of pain inside of you. I caught a glimpse of it when I read this piece.

Keep belting it out. I hope you don't mind a suggestion....

Lose the unnecessary words...the ones that don't jolt your gut.

:thumbsup:
