Me

Sweat with them, cry with them.

Laugh with them….dream.

What better way to be closer to someone

Then to know who they’ve been.

 

We each have a story

Of how we have all come to be

This might help you understand 

 Who I am , why I am.

How I  have come to be me

No better way to find out the heart of a man than to listen-An art that one has to develop. It takes patience and willingness and for some individuals-perseverance. We are not by nature good communicators, but that too can be developed with time. You have hit upon a subject that is important to selflessness: Delving into the life and heart of another.

Well done!

[Kelly D. Burris]

I really like this, it gets to the heart of the matter, who the person is really. Deep down, no masks or props, but just raw basics. The best way to know someone. It speaks of the intensity in which you like to get to know people, their true selves.
Thanks for sharing.

just this part alone shows that you just what some one to undersatnd who you are and from what i see in your writing your a great person....you want the love,you want the person to hold and laugh with to just be one together, you have shown that you can be sencer in your word of writing and i understand this peace cause i to felt like that at one point,it does not matter long or short its a great write.

"What better way to be closer to someone

Then to know who they've been."

that's such a fantastic line :) :)

this made me think about my upcoming road trip, and how i can't wait to meet some wonderful people along the way. i'll have to remember this piece, and make sure to take the time to get to know some people... their stories, their hearts. it would be well worth the effort, i am sure. :)

Good message. very very true too. I have always said that people should get to know others before judging, (neg. or pos.). and this poem sums it up very nicely. it says it so non-threatening, and polite, yet packs a punch so you message is conveyed. very nicely done.

Our struggles and accomplishments make us who we are today.

In this poem, I see that you reach out a hand to others and share life, whether times are bad or good. In turn, you wish for others to understand your inner being.

I see an understanding of how we all have a past and knowing what another has been through shows why a person is the way they are today or why they aren't a certain way. Some build strength from the past, some use it as a crutch.

I could tell you all of the poetic terminology descriptions about this poem. But I prefer to just tell you that this poem is short with much insight.

Oh hey thats cool, I like that!
It reminds me of making new friends....

Very nice. I like this because even though its short, it speaks volumes about walking with someone in life SHOULD be..
Now a days most people are very selfish, and want instant gratification of everything, from friendships, to marriage. People are not faithful in much of anything... unless they are getting something out of it, or that person...its sad but true..
Like I said, short, but it speaks a lot of humanity's basic need...to be loved, and known intimately and faithfully.

Wonderful write. :)
