(TO MY EX) FORGET YOU!

[ShaunaEmm]

It is one thing to write a beautiful poem, and it is a whole other thing to be able to read it beautifully. Brava!

[uberfish911]

that was absolutely beautiful. you're a wonderful speaker, and I really loved it! keep going :)

[12345lllooolll]

was she uglie? 0_0

[xlightknightx]

Beautiful man! Almost exactly how I felt. And the emotions aligned so well!

[sodjs]

straight to my ex ...... GIVE ME BACK MY 8 YEARS OF LIFE TIME !!!!

[Cch092775]

It's strange, I ran into two of my ex's. They both are as beautiful as I remembered them. I was as if time stood still, but both were married, had children and divorced.

I am still married, maybe I was the lucky one.

Good job, CalmRage1. We all have gone through this. In retrospect, time heals all wounds.

Mr. P.J. This was intense..i always enjoy your videos. Wellworth the time.

Much success to you dear one.

[DrBakhardi]

that's a good question. with one particular ex whose libido suddenly dropped off the face of the earth after only 4 months of being together, i'd have to know what the hell happened.

i was put thru a year of getting no satisfaction so i want to be satisfied with an answer before i consider forgiving. i got over it but still wonder the answers to a LOT of questions.

[YESthismeansYOU]

deep thought.  i ask myself that question when i think about my ex. i think it depends on the way things end.

[tonydmen1]

awesome

[alexisasay]

Very good.

i have alot of ex's but there is one ex named mike that if i ever saw again i would ask him what did i do or didnt do that made him cheat on me.

[Clobberbob55]

Been there, man.

Nice job!

[TunesNorth]

Hey Buddy,

Great job, enjoyed your performance.

Thank you for the share my friend.

Thumbed!

[sistalinda]

That was excellent.  That was real.

[positivevalence]

Very good! do more

[CalmRage1]

you entirely miss the point. noone expected much of her until she showed them all what she got. she's going her dreams. posting my video is about doing the same especially since it's not watched by much. that's my point and i stand proudly by that. watch me burn!

[KronicDemon442]

Hi, did you do toastmasters? I just ask because your very good at speaking.

[CalmRage1]

no but that's a good idea to consider. i wouldn't mind to do speaking engagements. have a nice week KronicDemon442

[positivevalence]

to chommy- You should be banned from Youtube.

[TSquared2001]

I can't relate but this sounds like a profound piece of prose.

[netengeargirly2k]

I just can't imagine seeing my Ex ever again. LOL I bet your book might be facinating. I'd buy it. But i'm clueless as to what this all means>? Can I get a some more infor or do I have to read your book. Smile

[MoonwalkerPJ]

it was so coincidental the way the Bachelor did the lady so wrong that it brings up the universal question about what happens after the fallout. we're seeing so many people's reactions to what happened.

"Hope Rising" is an introspective book of poems that celebrates good times, hard times & optimism. This poem "The EX" is included in it :D

[krosakiichigo]

sounds like what someone would say during a phone call with your ex. it has that sensation where you feel like you just need to cry for it. crying it out for the things that happened.

thanks mr.PJ, this is one of the moments i don't want to forget

[ltbake]

haha yeahhhhhhhhh do the same think whit a dirtybeat and you got it ;)

[PJHfilms]

Good song like the wallpaper

[alexisasay]

Very well done.

[brasilsweet]

thanks pj,i am getting trough tough times,but tonight i am holding in there thanks

[bubblybombshell]

Very deep, very deep, I liked it a lot. Better to forgive and...forget. No need in keeping hatred inside, it's finished, over, just move on! What a wonderful performance Calmrage, you rock!!!! 10 stars

[CalmRage1]

[MarcusitoD]

Amazing PJ... a great spoken word filled with simple yet powerful emotions that we all have experienced. Very touching... bravo.

[CalmRage1]

thank you so much Marcus. man, i appreciate that. glad this piece did something for you too.

[FreeAdviceForMen]

i think it would have been better if you would have spok from your heart and not read it from a paper

[CalmRage1]

hey there wise men! the words i read are from a sincere place but normally i prefer doing these pieces off paper. i admit it does shave off the authenticity of what i want to accomplish.

i just couldn't wait to do this one. i will take your advice & definetly keep it off paper cause i hated to stay stuck to the written word. thanks wise men!

[NewWarriorReidBaer]

Blessings to you, my brother.

[hillbillygill99]

love your video, the ex, wow man , i don't have an ex

[CalmRage1]

it's definetly saying something if someone who has no ex can still feel what this selection is saying. thanks hillbillygill99!!!

[lilbits]

Now we look back. You're very gifted PJ. The work is beautiful and thought filled. Yes, I understand. I felt this way. I am pleased to know a little more about you. I will buy your book. Blessings

[CalmRage1]

i'm honored lilbits. every bit of support is helpful. this is very motivating!

[Pjphoto]

Awesome...

[CalmRage1]

awesome thanks pjphoto!

[baldyholly79]

Very powerful and thought provoking. Learn from experience is my motto and if all else fails, avoid the ex like the plague lol

[CalmRage1]

thank you baldyholly79 for enjoying this. great to hear from another who is so highly talented man!

[Blankfrack]

There is no pain on Earth like the pain you feel when you realise that it's possible for someone you love(d) so much to carry on without you. Existential, Universal, crushing and most of all...HUMBLING.

[CalmRage1]

the truth hurts but if i've learned something from it, i'm sure glad to know i'm not alone in it. thanks for watching this Blankfrack!

[Blankfrack]

My priviledge. Been there, my friend

[dicklacock]

Profound and right

[CalmRage1]

thanks for watching dicklacock. it was kinda rough doing this but i guess the truth shines through.

[LittleGB6]

Very powerful, very meaningful.

[CalmRage1]

hey there LittleGB6! thank you kindly for checking this out. sure hope this piece will be helpful to anybody who's been through this.

[carlsburgh]

beautiful pj,

[CalmRage1]

awesome thanks carlsburgh! i really appreciate that :D

[DsmB2007]

Been there Mr. Pj..!!

Even in the bad break-ups..I've never held a grudge. I ran into one of my ex-es after 12 years..we talked for an hour..laughed a bit..it was great. Just like Dan Fogelberg's song..Auld Lang Syne...it wasn't winter though!!

great video..!! =)

[CalmRage1]

hey daniel! what a testament to what a great person you are. i think for some people it takes a little time to get over it & move on. i hope this helps those who feel like this. thanks!!!

[Aloverssoulz]

I love this video. It was really good. I truely enjoyed it.

[CalmRage1]

thanks so much Aloverssoulz. i didn't realize until after i put it up just how personal this one was.

[BeatBuddy]

PJ, you're just as cool as ever.

I believe in reconciliation and apologizing for past mistakes, but for me that's impossible, for a brain tumor sabotaged the relationship. Then I got involved with someone with a severe case of anxiety disorder, and if that doesn't take its toll, nothing does.

[CalmRage1]

but you know what, something tells me you invested yourself in it with the best of intentions. sometimes seasons change even when we don't want it to.
