and yet love just the same
I want to ease your heartache
to take away your pain
I'm reminding you you're special
in so very many ways
I'm here to give you testimony
that you have a friend today
You'll not be left all alone
to just fend for yourself
Though miles do seperate us
Your heartache I have felt
When you're feeling lonely
or your heart fills with despair
Simply close your eyes my friend
you must know that I am there
You may cry upon my shoulder
until I'm completely wet
I will be crying with you
of that you'd better bet
I'll wrap my arms around you
to just hold you for awhile
or kiss you oh so softly
if that will make you smile
It simply tears me up inside
to know that you are hurting
So if I think I'll make you laugh
there may be some harmless flirting
My love is Unconditional
it simply has no price
I gave it to you freely
when you came into my life

Aww.
It's so sweet that you feel this way about your buddies; especially that you wrote a poem about it. Apparently others feel the same way, too. -

Just not my thing
I just don't like sappy poems like this or poems that conform to uch a strict style. In trying too hard to be sincere it comes off a insincere. Just my opinion. -
-
Thank you
for taking the time to leave your comment. I still say any comment is a good one. Every one is entitled to their opinion. There was no trying here. I only said what I felt. I don't follow any style or any rules. I just write it the way I hear it. Like I told someone else who compared this to a Hallmark card and then said no one believes in the sincerity of a Hallmark card. I think the sincerity of it is based solely on and judged in respects to the sincerity of the person giving it. If you give someone a card, regardless of it's content, and they know or feel you to be insincere then of course they won't believe in the card. My point is that those that I wrote it for knew it was sincere as they had experienced it. Many others seem to be able to feel or sense the sincerity of it.
-
-
Wow!
This poem is so the way true friendship should be. Completely unselfish, there for others, not for yourself. I loved it. It's crazy how uncomfortable we get about sharing what's in our hearts with the people closest to us. It should be easier with friends, but sometimes it isn't. Those who have friends like the speaker in the poem are very lucky.

-
-
Thank you
I'm glad you understood the spirit this was written in. Sometimes it is difficult for people to open up to others even if it is someone they are close to. Sometimes it's actually easier to talk to a stranger because there is no need to worry about what they will think. Thank you for such a wonderful comment and compliment. It is very kind of you to say that people are lucky to have someone like me as a friend. Thanks again.

such a sweet poem!
wow! you are really amazing at this. actually, i only clicked on this poem because Hawk wrote one with the same title and i wanted to see if mabye it was inspired by you or something, and also because you are one of the few people i actually know on this site....
anyway, that is realy good. has Hawk read it? I'm really glad i came along this website, and that i got to meet you!
thanks alot for everything that you've done so far, like the intro to the website. That must have taken forever to write. thanks again!

I appreciate you not only reading my poetry but also taking a moment to leave me a comment. I owe this read to Hawk, eh? I'm glad you checked this one. It is one of my favorites since it holds so much meaning for me. I checked the list of reads and Hawk has read it but sadly did not comment. She did however tell me in a message that she liked it. You are welcome for everything. It was a pleasure to meet you as well. This actually poured out in no time at all. A lot of mine happen that way. Thanks again.
-
-
First of all I wanted to say how sweet and sooooo very unselfish and genuine I thought you were for this poem. It made me feel like picking up the phone (but i dont have your number LOL) and telling you all the bad things that have ever happened to me!!! And yes i agree to the fact that if someone told me one of my poems sounded "Hall-Marky" I to would take it as a compliment. As far as the rhyming goes..... EVERY one of my poems rhymes..... thats how I write. So theres nothing wrong with that at all!!! Great Job!! and I will be looking and reading more from you!! thanks for putting me in a great mood!
-
-
Thank you
I'm glad you could see the sincerity in this. I know that most of those who have read it did also. You may not have my number but I'm easy to message. I absolutely took it as a compliment even though he didn't mean it as one. Before I joined sharepoetry all my poetry rhymed as well because that was simply the way my inner poet whispered it to me. Since joining I've learned to branch out and try new things. I think it is good for us to grow as writers. I hope to one day have all types of poetry on all types of subjects. I'm glad I could put you into such a good mood. Thank you for the read, the comment and the wonderful compliments.

simple yet heartfelt
the vernacular you have written in reminds me of a child's. I assume this is intintional to stress the point of what unconditional love is that of a child's. But what I like more than that is your poem seems truely genuine tracsending art into something also fuctional. groovy brother.

Thank you
I appreciate you taking the time to not only read my work but to also leave a thoughtful comment. I will admit that you sent me to my electronic dictionary with the word vernacular. It was not intentional for it to sound as a childlike dialect. That is an interesting perspective though. A child's love is the most unconditional there is. I'm glad to hear you felt it seems genuine as every word is. Every word that was written flowed from my heart and was truly sincere. Thanks again.

Be careful
what you wish for. There have been many a drunken night, weeping profusely into my rum and coke, that I've wished for someone to offer me eternal shoulders and Kleenex.
I won't say I found this to be a good poem, but take heart, when it comes to the subjective realm of art what is "good" is largely debateable. I can, at least, offer you some reasons why I don't like this.
Firstly, as previously mentioned by another reader, this has a Hallmark quality to it. To me, forced, sing-songy, rhyme for rhyme's sake is the death knell of sincerity, and art without sincerity is, to quote Jesus, a "whited sepulchre." It isn't that I'm against using rhyme, I'm not, I just don't think it should clobber me over the head. Subtlety is needed.
My other, very big, complaint is that you don't use a single image to convey this endless well of affection you seem to have for everyone. All this does is tell me you're always going to be there for me with tissues in hand and an understanding sniffle. You need to show me in pictures, verbs, nouns, literary device, metaphor, simile...the boring lecture stuff you had in English class. Imagine going to an art gallery and seeing on a white canvas words which say on one part of the canvas: "this is a tree," and, on another part, "this is a riverbank where a woman stands crying." People would feel cheated and bored. Do you follow?
My advice, if it's worth a damn, is to sit down with a sheet of paper or in front of your keyboard or whatever gets you off and just write without thinking or planning. Let it all hang out, get personal, get silly, but most of all get real. When you're finished with your purging (as I call it) put it away and don't look at it again for about a month. Then, go back and take out all of the very descriptive, action-packed, emotionally charged shit and use this for your poem. Forget about Hallmark, no one believes in the sincerity of a Hallmark card.
Just my opinion.
-
-
Thank you
For taking the time to give your opinion. I've always said that any comment is a good comment. It at least lets us know people are actually reading our poetry and not just clicking and moving on. As you know everyone is entitled to their opinion. I will, however, address some of the issues you had with this poem.
I have spent many a night on here letting someone I barely knew or didn't know at all cry on my shoulder. It didn't matter much to me whether those tears were being shed by a man into his rum and coke over regrets of choices made or by a young girl with a broken heart. I have talked to and hopefully by the grace of God helped many people who were struggling in there own way.
I write a lot of sing song rhyming poetry because that is the way I hear it. It may seem forced to you because you don't care for it but I find it difficult not to rhyme and have to force myself not to when trying to write a none rhyming poem. So you should be warned that much of my poetry would probably clobber you over the head.
As I told the poet who complimented me by saying "Nicely done. This has a Hallmark-ish quality to it, but is not as sappy as so sugar sweet cards <- compliment, there." I don't know about anyone else but I take being compared to a company as hugely popular and succesful as Hallmark as a compliment. Of course to have her say that mine is better and not so sappy sweet was simply an even better compliment.
You are right that I didn't draw you a picture. I didn't feel it was necessary. This poem was written for several of those I have talked to, sometimes for hours, when they were hurting or confused. I have dropped what I was doing to do just that. If others see this as an invitation to ask my advice or simply for me to listen while they talk that is fine as well.
I do however have some poetry that doesn't rhyme and is closer to what you are asking for in the way of description. If you'd like you can click these:
Solitude http://sharepoetry.com/poem/28538
Shelter From The Storm http://sharepoetry.com/poem/28856
I Dreamed of Painting http://sharepoetry.com/poem/30852
Sea of Lonliness http://sharepoetry.com/poem/30798
I must say that much of the art I see simply astounds me that people would go to see it, let alone pay untold fortunes to own it. I think if the right famous artist did make a work of art with nothing but words on it saying "this is a tree," and, on another part, "this is a riverbank where a woman stands crying." millions would flock to it and praise his ability create such a master peice. As you yourself said "when it comes to the subjective realm of art what is "good" is largely debateable."
I've heard others say that they often write and put it away for a long time and take it out to see if it's worth posting, or even worth keeping. What you don't realize is that I did just sit down and write this without thinking or planning. I just listened to my inner poet and wrote what I heard. I didn't force it. I didn't do anything but speak from my heart. It flowed out as is without any effort at all. It was personal, with a little silliness and it was very real.
The problem with putting it away for a month and then pulling out whatever and posting it, is that would have meant for a month some of those I talked to wouldn't have read it for a month. One of the girls I talked to wouldn't have talked to me for an hour one night after reading it until I convinced her to seek help to stop cutting herself. Yet another girl that I talk to might not have talked to me for hours until she felt like living again instead of commiting suicide that very night.
As to the sincerity of a Hallmark card, well, I think the sincerity of it is based solely on and judged in respects to the sincerity of the person giving it. If you give someone a card, regardless of it's content, and they know or feel you to be insincere then of course they won't believe in the card. The same, in my opinion, is true for rhyme in poetry. The sincerity is based on much more than the way it sounds.
Poetry is meant to stir the emotions. Even though you didn't like the poem itself it must have stired something as you did a great job of presenting your reasons for not liking it. I take heart in the fact that although you didn't like it, enough of those who read it liked it enough for it to be the number one most popular poem on the site at the moment. I believe that most of those who read it knew it was sincere.
Maybe the next time you are having a drunken night, weeping profusely into your rum and coke, you can give me a holler. I'll listen for what it's worth. However, I should let you know when others drink it tends to dull my senses. Thanks again for the extensive comment.

You know...
I didn't mean to hurt your feelings, so if I did, I'm sorry. Maybe I could be critical without being sarcastic, but sarcasm comes very naturally to me.
I don't retract any of the, I think, very constructive, points I made regarding your poem but I do think I was in a particularly sarcastic mood that night, so, again my apologies.
Good luck and God bless.

Nicely done. This has a Hallmark-ish quality to it, but is not as sappy as so sugar sweet cards <- compliment, there.
The rhyming in this is nice... not so tight that it strangles the lines, but loose enough that they flow into the next seamlessly to create an overall feel good poem. Wondering about the capital 'U' in Unconditional, though... is there a special meaning with that?
-
-
Thank you
I appreciate you taking the time to not only read but also take the time to comment on my poem. Hey, I don't know about anyone else but I take being compared to a company as hugely popular and succesful as Hallmark as a compliment.

I'm glad that you haven't. I'm afraid time has a tendancy to bring the worrys we lose back around to us somehow. You are right. I would be there for you in a heartbeat. Why wouldn't I want to make you laugh? After all when you laugh you smile and you have a beautiful smile.

hey Brian
I liked the poem, there isn't much I can say as for what you did right in this poem to make it as effective as it is. And having a personal connection to a bunch of girls doesn't hurt LoL. Cheater haha. All in all it's a good poem, it has it's weak spots and it's definitely not your best poem. But it may be your most relatable or favorite to others. But I've seen better written by you. Thanks for sharing my friend, and where's my shout-out?? WTF?? LoL JK LoL take care and I hope to talk to ya soon.

Always so Damned technical!
Feel free to message me the weak spots. I may not change them but I'm always interested in your opinion. Yes, even when you're obviously raking me over the coals for being busy and not killing myself by striving for absoulute perfection. This poured out from my heart line after line. When it was done I simply didn't want to change a thing. It's not my fault girls like me. Most of them haven't seen my face. Thanks for keeping the language to a minimum.

A True Person
This poem is absolutely beautiful poem, it does my heart glad to see such compassion is still alive within people. There is nothing technical to comment on because each word and line is filled with absolute warmth and feeling. These words cannot just be written down they have come flowing from the heart and that is why tears flowed down my face when I read this. Thank you for show us all that compassion is still living in this world.

For your wonderful compliments. I am overflowing with compassion. You are correct that this was not just a poem written simply to be a poetic arrangement of words. This poem truly flowed from my heart and is filled with heartfelt sentiment from beginning to end. Thank you for showing that compassion is still appreciated in this world. Thank you also for freely expressing the effect of this poem upon you. As I wrote this my tears to flowed down my cheeks as I thought of all those who reached out to me and let me into their lives. You have given me great joy by letting me know it can also be appreciated by those who have not. Thank you.

The fact that you had something so wonderful to say is just the frosting on the cake. I hope you know that if you ever need a friend I'd be there for you. Just no flirting and no kisses. I'm sure that's quite fine with you. Thanks again.
Your friend,
Brian
