She Has Gone

you know some people talk out of their a$$ to fill inside some deep unspoken need and so they try to make their gossip pass to let the demons out and to be freed I do not know who's spoken ill of you why would they so malign an angel fair they fling malicious words, I'm sure untrue and now you've gone, there's not a poem there I'm sad, I'm sad, I'm twisted deep inside You gave to many here the chance to write the gates of membership, you opened wide and now your name is gone from on this site To those who know not what they do or say Your words, your deeds have pushed my friend away Eileen Manassian I'm very sad because a very dear friend of mine has deleted her account from this site. This women has handed out PMs and Life memberships as though they were candy. She's intelligent, smart, and beautiful, and I'm gutted to know that some people have been unkind to her. This is a sonnet slam, if such a thing exists. I have not been told who the people who have spoken unkindly are...but it isn't the first time it has happened. My friend is above and beyond pettiness...She left quietly...but this is me being upset.

Your poem was really excellent, I m really sorry that some peoplez were unkind to her, but did she tried to sort this out,just a general question no offense , because although their is a girl who was really offended by my message, it was good she made it clear so I really ask for her forgiveness but she never later reply, I m still sorry as I ve offend her but I wasn t aware of it however I m new and also have some good poems which I would like you to read and tell me how you feel about them

Thank you, Rick. My 50th was the most difficult birthday of all. However, it passed...and I'm glad I had my dad and step-mom here to pamper me. I might post some pics on FB when I get the chance. They are still here and leave on Tuesday morning. Then Hubby and I were travel over the weekend. We will meet up with my daughter! That's another celebration. I'm glad he gets spouse allowance for his business trips. :)

My condolences to you Eileen. She has many desired traits so her exit degrades this site.

Thanks, Rob. I don't know what else to say about this matter. I wish things were different. I wish she were still here. She's helped me....emotionally. She's helped me believe in myself and love myself. It's a precious gift that I will always treasure. Thank you again for posting.

I've never found any fault with F.J. My poetry may not be the best yet she taught me to look inside my heart and write about how I truly feel inside. If it wasn't for her influence, some of the poems that I consider to be better may not have been written

It probably was, but I can't be too sure. She does it quietly, but I do know that many here have benefited from her very generous heart. Yes, her writing was....FIRE...full of heart and soul. Remember the good old days on Stand as One. :) Good times....Hugs

Hi Eileen...I went to her posts to soupmail her, but was met with a blank page! I don't have her email address, but hopefully will contact her through fb. This truly special lady has been kind to me and many others. I know how you feel; she will be greatly missed. Hugs // paul

Yes, I will miss her. She was a bastion of support. I don't understand who could have faulted her and for what? Drop her a message. I'm sure it will do her good to know that she is missed. I didn't plan on giving out her name, but I guess the clues in my poem were enough. :( I hope she isn't upset with me because she wanted to leave quietly...How can we lose someone so dear...quietly?

I'm so sad to hear this, she is a special lady and the soup has lost flavour with her absence. I too am saddened! She is a generous and strong woman. We need more like her not less. Hugs Rick.

Richard, you have captured her spirit well. It's not that I have lost her from my life. It's that we have lost her poetic voice which was strong and passionate. It hurts me. I hope that you never leave. That would be crushing as well.

Eileen, I just felt a stab of loneliness when I read this. followed by a surge of anger.

John, it pains me...deeply. I've lost many friends over the years here. Honestly, Flo has benefited this site monetarily SO SO much. I know of so many she's gifted memberships too. She is outspoken, but we need that sometimes. I'm sad...Thanks for the reply. Interestingly...many have read this poem, but few have commented. That in itself says something is amiss.

I am saddened with such news..I am trying to contact her and ask what happened.The person you speak of is such an amazing woman...and I am really upset...

Thanks, Charmaine. You now how much she loves you. I didn't mention her name in my poem, but it was mentioned in the comments. She is a dear friend, and it makes me livid that she would be maligned in any way...Hugs. I know you love her too.

I don't know, Jan. I don't know. I'm gutted too. Almost feel like leaving myself. I know she wouldn't want that. She gifted me a lifetime membership. She probably would not want me to post this poem...but I need to process. Hugs. This place is slowly but surely losing its appeal
