[Loveunited]

Why thank you Front,I will take it to heart. My mind is tired of trying to figure out all the permutations of THE GAME. I mean the BIG GAME, I know it will go on it I attend to it or not. I guess my next role in this movie is to continue to pay more ATTENTION to stoking the real power that IS and be a B-ALIVE-R.

Blessings...... :bearhug:

I just got home. I was listening to Will You Be There as I pulled in the driveway. I was so overcome with emotion I wept. Then I walked in the door, refreshed the site, and Front has posted.

That was beautiful Front...much like your other poetry, it's tinged with both joy and pain.  And while the feelings of joy that it brings forth are breathtaking....the pain in it makes it hard to breathe...

We've been discussing the trial recently (again)...and perhaps Front's poem/thoughts have nothing to do with the conversations here...who knows?  But this part of the poem is THE reason why I just cannot entertain the notion of the trial having been fake:

I remember those days
of anguish and pain
drowning my spirit
like a monsoon rain
my cries washed away
no voice escaped
no one heard
no one admitted their mistake
but He was there
He witnessed it all
He was my believer
and He answered my call

Are "those days of anguish and pain" that Front speaks of the days spent during the trial?  None of us can know the answer with 100% certainty.  But given what Mike was accused of....given what he had to endure....if there is even a 1% chance that it WAS real (and the % in my opinion of it having been real is much, much higher)....then that 1% chance overshadows everything...and I just can't tear myself away from his pain long enough to 'smile' about any part of it.

Thanks for sharing a piece of yourself with us Front...it's much appreciated.  As are you.

With L.O.V.E. always.

I never ever considered it fake. I interpret this poem as describing his truth and faith. It's a beautiful poem Front.

@mindseye...I hear ya.

@Front, your poem made me think of this song...the chorus came to mind out of the blue right after reading the poem.  This is the first youtube vid I landed on when I searched for it just now...it's fitting in so many ways.

Not sure anyone could in any capacity could refer to the actions that led up to the trial a "mistake".

yeah i don't get the feeling it is about that.

Beautiful poem Front. 

I think you're saying that God was/is there for you.  He answered your call. 
We'll be here for you too, always and forever.

Love You                    :bearhug:

Me either.  It feels more like a missing piece of what happened on June 25th to me.  Was Conrad Murray his believer?  I have always believed that Murray was the one who in pretending to be so incompetent actually played an essential role in helping Michael escape, pretending to be following directives to satisfy the powers that be.  It is a belief so deep seeded in my heart that I cannot let go of it.

Amazing post BTC......as always.  I love the 1% reference......I'd say too, if there is even only a 1% chance he's still alive (which I fully to believe a lot higher).....but even at 1%, I will not back down from beLIEving .  I will stand the ground, stay on target and press onward through this path when the time is right.  I always have to stop and give pause when things get dark.  I revert to that wall-flower inner self.  I find darkness a time of reflection. The last few pages, have been very "reflective" for me.  However, it usually takes just one post to bring me out and into the light......it's the 1% factor, BTC.  Even if the percentage was half that.....I'd still beLIEve, I'd still be here.  1/2% compared to the 101% Michael gave the world....my faith in him is much stronger than that.  I can sustain myself on that faith for as long as needed.  Truth to tell, I suppose you all are stuck with me, lol.
 
Oh yeah......SEHF.....I rescued a turtle yesterday...for real, poor thing was stuck in the street and couldn't get up on the curb to get down to the pond.  He was a handsome little turtle, abut the size of my laptop.  He's safe and sound in the pond again.....I named him SEHF  :icon_cool:

Blessings Always

Such a beautiful and heartfelt poem Front.  I count your p.s. up there with the most wonderful things I've yet read on the forum.

P.S. My dear friends,
just as you believe in Michael, he too believes in you
take these words to heart
for they are sincere and true.

beLIEve that!
heart 2 heart.......
Promise.

I do beLIEve that Front.....  and to know that it is reciprocated and that Michael believes in us too... is like a rainbow after a  storm. Thankyou Sir. You have made my week.

What "trial" are you referring to - the one in 2005 or the CM trial?

When I first read that poem it took me back to the events surrounding the trial in 2005. The pain, the sense of loneliness and heartache. I'm sure he spent many nights alone crying out to God. Certainly Sneddon would never admit to being wrong but the media could have made an attempt to right some of their wrongs but they never did. Then there is the accusers themselves. They all continued to slander Michael's good name.

I believe that the line "He answered my call" was a reference to God intervening and making sure the jury saw the truth amidst the lies of the prosecution. Remember, innocent people go to jail every day and Sneddon tried his hardest to send Michael there too. But God intervened.

Front - thank you for the poem and words of encouragement. I am sensing a different vibe from you as of late. Maybe it's just me.

Blessings to you all.
