WHY DO YOU WANT TO QUIT?

this was perhaps the best poem you've written, except for the last one you wrote and said it was soooo bad. right. and the one you IMed to me. Yeah, those were so bad I printed them out and i stuck them in my locker. Those were so bad I had several lines branded into my mind forever and...

If they were so bad, why did I turn into a complete stalker maniac over them?

you're so good, Brad, WHY THE HELL ARE YOU GONNA QUIT?!?!?

And besides, look at me. I haven't written anything for a while, yet I'm still on here chatting away. You don't have to leave the site.

Brad, you're always hard on yourself!! You put down your looks and now your poetry. Stop being so damn BLIND! I'll be blunt here. You write the best damn poetry I've ever read. It's so powerful!! I hate when you put yourself down like this. You just don't see how awesome you really are..
Love and Light

Brad, I told you before it's an artist's slump. We all go through them. We love you, and the site is a little...well, I'll say it, boring without you. This Poem is amazing. I'm not just saying that to make you stay, I'm being honest. It's my favorite out of yours so far. If you feel you need to leave then do so, but please, PLEASE come back. Wewant you here, or even more so, we need you here!

You're a very great poet Brad. But I can't stop you from going. Good luck and I hope you feel better about your talents. This was a lovely last piece.

I know everyone's telling you, you don't need to stop, and how much of a great poet you are. Not saying that you aren't a great poet, but I am getting ready to say the exact opposite. A contrite spirit was born within me--I can't help it,lol.
Anyway, yes, you are a good poet but I had to stop writing for awhile. From August to October, I didn't even keep a diary which I have been doing since I was eight years old. And to tell you the truth, it helped me in my writing awhole lot. Sometimes you have to resign for awhile and just have the time to think--rejuvenate. Refresh your writing style. Someone told me this once, and I didn't believe them but I'm learning now that it's not as crazy as it sounds. So, as for me, unlike all the others who are having nervous breakdowns, overdoing it with all the "!!!!!!!!!!" and abusing the capital letters (which I hate), I am applauding you on leaving for awhile.
when there's nowhere to go, it's time to grow up.
