*I have never come up with a poem as quick as I came up with this one. This has nothing to do with me it just came to my head when I thought about a friend/ex boyfriend. That I can barely talk to without getting into a fight with. But anyways about the poem. Its ok I know if I took some time, I could make it better but here goes. If anyone can offer some help on to making it better please do so. Enjoy!!!


~*Time*~

The time has come for us,
to say our final good~byes.
So wipe away the tears,
and dry your eyes.

Time gave us love,
but then took it away.
And all that is left,
is the good~bye you must say.

Only time could tell,
when the day would come.
That turned our lover's melody,
into just a friends rhythm.

Give it some time,
and I promise your heart will heal.
But I cannot force myself,
to change the way that I feel.

ERIN- I really liked this!  Maybe we just have a thing for quick poems   I like how this seems sweet in a way even though it's about leaving someone...I dunno.  Definitely a good poem

Heya Erin,

Time spent isn’t any measure of beauty created.  
Ouch, that hurt my head…

Saying goodbye sucks, been there, done that…Great work though,

Laters,

Hey Erin!!! I like this!!! Fast poems can be awesome!!! All poems are awesome!!! How's life treatin' you??? My life sux. Justin won't talk to me/read notes from me/ answer the phone, and I'm sick with a cough. Well, I like this. Allysa

Don't wander throught this glassy surface, expecting to find more than me, because what I am without a purpose, but a lone mirage to see.

For one that came so easy, it is a magnificent poem. Looking forward to more.

A thought go unheard,
Let not one heart be broken
Dream of a perfect world.
