thank you graciously Poet because you asked.. love you.. Brenda

Shit lately especially I've wondered if I've ever truly even been UP...you destroyed me. With that opening..."lower than a cum stain underneath a whore's ass..." That's pretty dark n raw...

thank you Poe I watched your video you've been up my friend stay there :) love Crim

Youre so beautiful and the your statement is.a "keep living sooner or later ..truth..

thank you dearest Splits you are a loving & kind soul :) love Crim

My beautiful one, I read those words you graced us with and all I see is a beautiful soul in pain, whose words have not left her, she simply cannot feel them right now. I know the feel of some of these words, though only you can truly know the weight of them all. I would help carry it if I could. I do so love you, my beautiful Dark Angel

thank you lovely one you always bring me up with your beautiful compassion.. you want your demons to vacate I want mine to come back.. love you lady.. Crim

I totally agree with the title - but it saddens me to know your struggle. I really like who you are, a lot. I have no doubts I will like the person you may be becoming :-)

Big Warm Tartan Hugs on their way :-)

thank you David no worries some days are good some bad like with everyone.. love & hugs.. Brenda

I find you not guilty of creative deception, Lady Crim.  You're one of a kind, a true original seems to me, one with devastating power and honesty.  I feel I know you better having read this.  It's an honor...

thank you dearest Sir Crow I live sometimes in the creative fantasy that I make up reality at times is too harsh..  love Crim

My Beautiful Brenda, you are a woman of many facets...this is yet another one...one who looks at her others and feels she is lost, unable to see one of the others...my love...the truth is your facets have light which are too large to pin down...they ricochet off too many things at one time, passing by your beautiful eyes so quickly you believe they are not there...but they are...just look at these words...through your words, you, all you are is ALWAYS found....

I love you madly, deeply

your always & forever
xoxo Taryn

thank you my love for letting me view myself through your eyes.. you always reflect beauty to the point I can just see it.. you are a cherished woman & important part of my life.. I love you passionately.. love Brenda

i get this... being prone to emotional extremes happens to those of us who have to be hard to protect ourselves
xx
feel you bon deep, beautiful one
love you heaps

thank you beautiful one for feeling me on this write.. we do put on a hard front just to face the world.. love you lady.. love Brenda

thank you Dani just when I think i've made peace with mine they bite me in the ass.. wishing your some peace with your's lovely lady.. love Brenda

Brenda.. you speak with such conviction.. always telling it like you see it.. walking like you talk it.. you're the most brilliant poetess, i've ever known.. you share with us readers, all the pain.. the glory of the highs, and lows.. and hold nothing back.. i'm always in awe of you.. i've learned, and still continue to learn from you.. honored to call you my sister, and one of my most dearest friends.. i love you always, and so glad to be a part of your life.. by the way the pic, reminds me of a cross between a "Gypsy" and a "Gold Dust Woman".. both are my favorite Stevie Nicks songs.. love you..























Dave

thank you Dave you are so kind to me & show so much love.. you touched my heart with your take on my poetry you are very talented & I've enjoyed getting to know you over the years through our writes as well as chats.. so happy to have you to journey with as dear friends.. love you my brother.. Brenda

Your honesty hurts and inspires at once, which makes it all the more brave. Not surprised to put your heart on the line in every sense. Your sharing spirit does you so much credit

thank you dearest Taurus for feeling me on this one... this one is full of difficult truths 💕

love Brenda

As poets we are prisoners of our truth whenever we write. The best show their power and their weaknesses to the world. Your ability to share such deep introspection is what makes you such a great poetess.

thank you dearest Chris for the love here I try and write whatever is on my mind to write no matter what or how painful...it can be humbling having it look back at you in black and white...

love Brenda 💕

Blessed soul write ... up down left right ... north south east west ... full instead of empty ... what if one could reverse all at will ... we may have to learn to write and read backwards and turned all around ... soul ... stick to soul in this ... Bless and love ... as always ...

thank you graciously dearest FeNyX for the love on this write and for the advice...

love Brenda 🌹
