I know that when I write something and share it with others, either on the internet or live, I live for the responses I get, whether its praise or bashing (though bashing stings a bit). I hate it when I don't get any response at all. Also, when people tell me about how my poems affected them, I'm just blown away, because I don't see it. I don't feel, see, or whatever that they say I made them do. It just doesn't affect me.....Amergin
