stealing pieces of the person I use to be
mixing me up into a jig saw puzzle
scattered pieces of the real me"

Never in my life have I ever met anyone with such a strong attitude. I'm a very happy person and almost NOTHING can get me down but I promise, you are beyond words!

This poem is so encouraging and I think THIS is the type of poem that all these "sad and depressed" teens should be reading. Whether you know it or not you are such an inspiration! To MANY, I know!!

It's perfect!! Besides the fact that it was so well written the message (even aside from the REAL issue) is divine! Luanne I will forever remember you...if one day I leave P&Q you are one person (along with your poetry) that I will NEVER forget!! You're simply amazing!

I sure do hope all is well...take care!! :) AWESOME WRITE!!

And BTW...anyone who rated this less than PERFECT is a damn fool!! It MORE than perfect! It should sitting on 5.0!!

Very STRONG ending! Keep it up

Hey
this is very moving and trithful, it has touched me deeply cos multiple sclerosis runs in my family. my dad and gran have it and i can see the effects it has on them and our sourounding family day in day out. it is a hard thing to live throught and you have to be strong , even the family have to be strong ( i know that for a fact). but expressesing the way you feel about it and telling everyone... i mean admitting you have it is a strong thing to do. n one in my family will talk about it, or tell anyone. so i would be gratful to hear what you think about living with it is like. an dif you have any ideas on ways to talk to my dad about it.
thank you and well done
