I always share my articles to my groups in Facebook. I have avid/regular readers waiting new articles. This morning I posted a poem and as usual, she's the first to like,read and comment there. I replied and she suddenly ask "how'd you write such wonderful phrases" I replied again " It's all inspired from a broken heart"[i][/i] She then response and wrote "tell me how to be inspired with a broken heart" For a moment I was tongue-tied. I lost my own words. I posted a smiley emoticon and until now I don't know what to tell her. I wrote from heart, from experiences. I don't know if my own dosage is applicable to her or to anyone else. I am citing realities in life, but it doesn't mean it can be applied to everyone. She really made me swallow my tongue- but, I made a poem exclusively for her Did anyone ask you such question that give you a little silence? Happy weekend everyone I missed Friday the 13th dinner date last night jaiho®- artist by heart (^_^) 4-14-2012 6:19pm Saturday PT

"Happy people have no story and no stories to tell to others". I am not sure it is the good comment : if you break her heart, you will lose a fan. I have a phobia for Friday the 13th : weir idea to choose a dinner for this date. Hope you did not broke another heart.

You know what my bonita? You're posted topic reminded me of what I did before that shaken the whole school campus. When you inspired you could everything. An inspiration is like an extra adrenalin. You could do the impossible. I once had a crush at my high school days (2nd year). In order to expressed and let it be known to all of my friends I impossibly composed a song for her that until now I can still remember completely the lyrics and rhymes of that song. How I wish I could back the hands of time bonita... It is really nice to feel in love always..like you bonita... Mobhomeir here 041412

I'm a writer too and I have to admit I've never been asked a question concerning my writings that has gotten me tongue-tied. But it seems this lady was deeply impressed by your work, so much so she sought to comprehend its deepest mysteries. That's not always so easy to convey, because of course each piece of writing is so personal. But as I see it, this lady loves your work, which is a wonderful thing for a writer, to inspire such admiration.

hello Carl, I think so, she's impressed or, maybe because she can easily relate with the pain that is why she feels that way. I admit I am thankful for having followers/readers who always read my works. Writing is a passion and I believed that sharing our feelings in a way we can trap our readers in our own world is a real success. Thanks and have a good day

Your poem was great. I thought her comment was very mean and unkind. Have a wonderful day!

I have been asked some questions that I did not know how to answer. Sometimes it is due to the fact that the answer is too personal and I do not feel comfortable sharing such things with someone I am not that close to. Other times I just do not know how to express certain things. Poetry is something that can come from the heart, but how it is interpreted is not necessarily how it was envisioned when writing it, and sometimes it does not lend itself to a more critical explanation.

hello purple, Honestly I am not sure if she's kidding me or not. So, I prefer give her indirect response. Thanks she did not ask for more

No nobody did since the people I know and read what I write know where the words come from. Think it's kind of a "stupid" question if you can't figure out yourself that the best words are expressed by the feelings and emotions we have. It's nothing new. Writers do it since ages no matter if it's a poem, book, article or song.

hello Kitty, She's a friend online and I know she's mending a broken heart. She might be kidding for such question (I really don't know) I wonder if she's really fond of poems, but I am sure she loves reading pocketbooks (loves story in particular) Therefore I assume she has a little bit of idea :) Thanks and have a good day

hello thuglove, I was caught unaware and never expect such question. Sometimes it is easier to write what we feel than saying it verbally. Thanks and have a good day

hi jaiho a person who takes what you said that literally needs to use her imagination a bit. You do not need to have a broken heart to imagine how one would feel and to write poetry from that inner feeling.also we all have our own realities if we just look within like the couple I watched having a verbal fight at college a number of years back. I wrote a poem about two angry peopoe hurling words at each other like tennis balls . I got an A plus but the teacher wanted to know what was my inspiration. I told him, that I was watching two couples ,one co uple trying to outdo the other in a tennis match and the other two were having a verbal fight that got hotter and hotter while the tennis p layers also were getting angry as the husband was beating his wife at the game and she was yelling cuss words back at him about how he always cheated. I put these two things together and came up with the poem.imagination thats what its all about.

dear Hatley, I agree ma'm, we can always our imagination. Now I know you also like writing poem, I wish to read one of your composition I know the lady can feel every words that I wrote since she is mending a broken a heart. I guess she wants to write her feelings- but can't find the right words to say/use. Have a great weekend

Hi jaiho: That's a strange question. So she wants to have a broken heart to write as beautiful as you? This doesn't makes sense to me. I think I would tell her that you can't learn that. You have to experiment this pain by yourself. To live her own life to discover these terrible moments where your heart is broken to get this kind of inspiration but I would not wish her this feeling because it's simply sad and devastating.

hello Alvaro, Nice to see you again dear friend She's mending a broken heart at this moment. Actually- it's a first love and you can imagine how it hurts. She's trying to understand things from my writings. She's being puzzled how do I manage to write while in pain. That's the part I can't give her definite answer. Maybe because some people can hardly organize their thoughts when they are in pain. I am on the opposite side, I can write easily and words are flooding in my mind when I am in pain. Expressing my emotion/s is so much easy for me right at the moment I am crying my heart out. Have a good day my dear

The right and true answer would have been that there is no way to inspire her on how you wrote such wonderful poems. Since it is personal experience of a broken heart, she would not understand. She herself would have to have went through what you went through in order for her to to ally understand.

hello inertia, She's actually mending a broken heart right this moment that is one reason why she can relate to my works. The only problem is, she haven't tried writing. I have told her she can start writing, like a diary and pour out her feelings. Thanks and have a great week

My dear jai,you made me smile again with your post. I agree with the girl that you are great in making poems and I also agree that it takes an inspiration to make a great poem. I was able to make one but that is because I am so in love not brokenhearted. Yes,what may apply to you may not apply to others..you can just tell her that my dear jai. I'm also your fan when it comes to your articles but I seldom visit fb and triond these days,hehe!
