My love wrote this poems for me. We love each other for 3 years. We are separated because we are in different countries. He is now moving on with his future and I am moving on too.

However, I just want to know whether he loves me or not.
He wrote over 30 poems about me, but he never told me--"He loves me"

Thank you...


Prisons

Men create thier own prisons
With the novelty of unimportant ideas
And they keep themselves locked and uphappy
For something that never was, is, or could be

A Sun
Category: Writing and Poetry
If I could remember all at once
All the moments I'd rather forget
I'd probably think twice 'fore all
And sinking quickly behind the clouds
My sun would set.
But life is too short for mulling reservation
And most of those days have passed
So we are what we've done, both the good and the bad.
Riding bare as a sun hits its highest
Me and my fierce ambition have arrived
At last

Many questions surface here on happiness and success.

When we do something wrong (morality or ethics), we tend to punish the person we believe is at fault. If a person believes that they are at fault, they will punish the self. Happiness and success cannot occur if the self is involved in punishment.

Who are you punishing?

i need to make my picture have a larger resolution for my yearbook class. apparently the program takes 300 resolution or higher. when i tried to resize it bigger on Microsoft Picture Manager, it did not change the resolution from 96. am i doing something wrong? how do i make this picture have more resolution? and i don't care if it "decreases the value and stretches it." i can play with the picture box so it won't look as bad.

In ethical and moral systems, there are punishments for violations.

For example, Hitler believed that Jews did something wrong. He went about punishing them through extermination.

The terrorists believed that the US did something wrong. They went about punishing the West through bombings and plane crashes.

The US believed that the terrorists did something wrong. They went about punishing the terrorists through a long war.

Are ethical and moral systems antithetical to world peace?

So, in my drama 2 class, we have to write our own monologues, and perform them in front of the class. These monologues are also going to be turned into two person scenes later. And there are absolutely no guidelines for this stupid assignment. It can be drama or comedy, there is no time limit or specific thing we have to write about; it doesn't even have to be from personal experience! These are my LEAST favorite types of writing assignments, because they're so freaking vague. I wrote one already, but it really really sucks, and I want to start over. I just can't think of anything good to write about! Does anybody have some ideas they could throw at me, so I could attempt to center a monologue around it? I've been wracking my brains here. I'm NOT asking any of you to write the whole monologue for me, I'd just like some ideas. I'm suffering from writer's block here.

Thank you. :]

i wrote it like 3 years ago

my love
why did you have to leave
all alone on the damp tile floor
with memories of you in my head
all i need is to feel your touch again
all you said to me was its over
never an explanation of what i did wrong
you were my entire life
now it seems as if a part of me is missing
but now i have to move on with my life
it will be a very hard journey
when you love someone so very much
a love like this is hard to let go
but i will make it
my love

this is not from personal experience
