VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

To touch your hands, my kindred soul would give
A thousand breaths as minor price to pay
If warmth could still assure me that you live
A while; oh yes, perhaps another day.
A little time might bring me closer still,
And I would offer love as but a part
Of all the precious things that last until
Your journey ends, and silence stills the heart.
Breathe once for me, that I might feel you rise
To greet me with your warm and living grace.
I'll give my all; yes, love will be the prize
That speaks of how we'll miss you in this place.
If prayers to keep you here cannot come true
And you must go, at least take love with you.

~JB
