Whoa I don't even know where to start my life has been a roller coaster. I'm in in love with someone I can't have. His eyes makes me fall in love even more than I should. We tried things but it doesn't work out. Cause at the end of the day I'll just be another girl to his list so I'll let you go for now. Goodbye forever and always yours, sarah

This poem touches me because I am currently in a very bad place...
I feel as though a good portion of my family has abandoned me, due to my recent actions...
I need to recognize that I am an alcoholic, and since my wife has passed away (3 years now), I have continued to be my own worst enemy...
I don't know where my life is going, and nearly ready to give it all up...
If it were not for my job, I would have given up several years ago

Amen, I too feel the same.
Poems just pop onto your head and heart.
A life experience, word, lyric in a song, all inspired a poem for me.
Keep on writing

I lost my husband suddenly with no signs at all. He was only 36 we had our entire life ahead of us and I feel I don't belong in this world anymore. It's been nearly a year and I struggle as the first day. I can't stop crying thinking about him, Gosh we were so one, so happy. People say perfection doesn't exist but it's a lie because I lived with a perfect dream husband and the saddest thing is I now have to live this horrible life without him. How to move on? I don't believe to anything and anyone saying this will get easier because for me it gets harder and harder. I really wish to know how, when the love of my life and my dream is gone what to hold on to any more.

My friends are always talking me down because I have really bad depression and I have lots going on in my life, like my dad won't talk to me and wants nothing to do with me. He has made it so I don't see my worth anymore and this poem really helps me understand the worth that I am and the friends that talked me down were right. That I do have more to live for.

Yes, I know exactly how you feel - I'm sure a number of others will too. Sadly the joy has gone out of Christmas for many of us.

Hello, I hope this reaches Mr. Hollingsworth. At the school my children attend, here in Indiana, each child gets up in front of the whole school once per year during their chapel time to perform an individual recitation of a poem, Bible verse, or excerpt from a famous speech or novel, etc. When searching for a sweet and meaningful poem for my third grade son to recite this year, we came across My Penny. I just wanted to let you know that this morning he stood on stage and recited your poem in front of our school community, with your name displayed on the screen as the author. He did a nice job, and I got a few compliments already from other parents about how dear the poem was. So, than you for sharing your poem, and hopefully this brings you a smile!
