  All WordPress blogs by default have comments open on all Pages and Posts. Note that comments are collapsed on the front page of the blog because if they were not then the blog would take ages to load and that would mean visitors would click out rather than waiting for the page to load.

  Your visitors click the post titles or the comment links or comment bubbles on the front page of the blog and they are directed to the full post appearing on its own page where the comment boxes appear at the end of the posts.

  You can enable and disable comments on WordPress.com blogs on this page Dashboard > Settings > Discussion
  That is where you set up defaults for comments and other comment options http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/discussion-settings/

  You can override the default settings and enable or disable future comments on any individual post or page.

  Important Note: By default, new blogs on WordPress.com will have the Discussion hidden. You can reveal it by clicking on Screen Options http://en.support.wordpress.com/screen-options/ on the top right corner of your Admin page, and checking the box that says Discussion so the module is included. http://en.support.wordpress.com/modules/#list-of-modules

  I cannot tell from what you posted if you created a static page for separate comments and embedded a contact form into it and then did not include it in a custom menu or not.
