Hey Harrow, good to hear your voice man :D

Wow this thread is majorly getting away from me...

anyway....erm.... I have tried to write this poem over and over and I know it sucks so PLEASE go easy on me and even Hmmm the recording is just the only one I managed to finish without screwing up part way... This poem is about a special kind of person, anyone who has met one knows what I mean, they just exude honest positivity and everyone ends up liking them, even people who dont like anyone. Ive spent the last 10 years or so (after meeting the first one) trying to describe what it is about them, and I finally met enough of them to narrow it down to a poem. so.... go easy *hiding

Beautiful poem :) your voice is not annoying or nasally! It’s fine just the way it is. It’s very calming/soothing to listen to. You’d be great at voice overs.
I know we’re from the same country but your voice sounds so different to mine. I sound very Essex whereas you sound very posh and proper speaking

Ok, apologies if I completely failed to make a poem (I remember I was trying to be clever and play with the rhyming pattern a bit)

Hey Dante I missed this when you first posted it but I have just stumbled upon it and must tell you I really REALLY enjoyed it. The poem is really good and your reading is awesome! You really should think about performing... unless of course you have already done that!? You read with such emotion and effect. I am really glad I found it. Especially this evening.
Thank you for sharing the poem but especially for reading it out loud to me. X

I cannot even begin to express what his poem did for me. I have wept. I have shared it now with three other people, two who are stressed and one suffering. Everyone was floored by the beauty, the power, the concept and delivery of those words. I really don't know how to say thank you and compliment you enough. I feel incredibly lucky to have randomly stumbled on this, so grateful for you sharing this. In a world of darkness I have known only a few people described in this way, and it is perfect. It helps me see who I used to be and that maybe, just maybe, I can get back there, find some light again and shine. Even if it just gets me through moments, it's working and I have saved it to my computer to listen to and share with others anytime the moment calls for it. A very dear thank you and I hope you receive some peace or joy knowing you touched so many in such a profound way. Publish this poem.

Before anyone gets the wrong idea, this poem is really just about an actual butterfly, no relation to our member Butterfly, and for once, I dont hate this poem, Im quite pleased with it, especially with how quickly I wrote it. It just started appearing in my head at work, a phrase here, a line there, so I noted down what I could and put it together when I got home.

That's quite an ability you've got there, to be able to craft & then execute poetry, with such (seemingly) effortless grace: knowing which notes to "play," when & where--when it comes to 'accents!' It must be a wonderful thing to have if not mastered in your own mind (certainly to many of us who have not) - then at least been more than capable of creating near professional level (sounding) work. At least to the non-descreet; or "neophyte" among us. . . And I only wish you wouldn't have included the disclaimer about the 'Butterfly!' ~ ;) * just joking, or kidding..:) I like to tease, or mess with, those that I like--& think can take it. I sometimes am wrong (in this assessment, or judgement, however!). Regardless of how "good," you find or feel about your 'work.' I think that one thing that cannot be in question is what an audience thinks of it. And with that test experiment, in this instance being "us," I'd say you've satisfied beyond what most could hope to dream & acclerate at, or accomplish, in this manner/regard/or- 'sense.'
