Nightfall

Whenever life gets too hard and you feel like falling apart, seek shelter in my arms, find comfort in my heart, and when night falls, I'll sit with you in the dark, and we'll make friends with the moon and the stars. And when the sun finally rises and shines light on your scars, don't be afraid to show the world who you are, you may not have made it to where you're going, but you've made it this far, and I'll be there to lead you out from the dark.

Dont try too hard my friend, Your beautiful poems will come when they are ready. It wont help everyone, but it helps me by looking down the contests that are posted, to see if any give me inspiration. Looking forward to reading a new one Shane but I can always go back to the ones already posted until a new one arrives. Last couple days the internet has been down, Server problems, and I have felt great... Maybe that is telling me something...lol Cheers. Take care ,., Wen

Hey, SV. I'd love to write more, enough for a book, but I'm not that talented. It takes me a long time to complete anything. :( Will there be another platform for your fans to see your new poems?

Simply beautiful. I am sorry I hadn't read this earlier. I cant even think of words to describe how I feel. For minutes I have sat here thinking of the right words , but they fail me, so I will just read your tender poem again Shane and be envious of the wonderous love it expresses.
