My FWW sent this poem to a publisher after many people encouraged her and they liked it so much they are going to publish it and enter it into a contest (results at the end of March). They sent us a letter (not an e-mail) saying they have an idea of what inspired the poem and hope we are doing better.
A Second Chance Your love for me has spared me You gave me a second chance
My love for you was always strong But I'm ashamed of how I yearned
A second chance to cherish you When you were so ignored
A second chance to make things right A bright new day, a new life
We fight for our love We fight for our souls
We fight for a second chance
I'm very proud of her. Her poems have enabled her to express herself without feeling uncomfortable about it. Her IC is very pleased. She has written about 15 and one other is being considered for publishing.

The character of a person is defined by their actions...not their intentions. Otherwise, the world would be full of Saints.
