When did you leave?
Where did you go?
I have so many questions.
But I don't know
How to ask them
Or when
And where
How come life isn't always fair?
I loved you.
You left this town.
And on my face
Is still a frown.
I'd loved you
Since the fourth grade.
All that time I was afraid.
I thought that you liked my best friend.
But I didn't know that you were following the trend.
You said you liked her.
But you did not.
So I thought "what the heck I'll give it a shot"
But you went away.
Away from me.
Now I only wish that you could see
How I loved you.
But I waited to long.
And now look where I am
You're gone.

"I am who I am who I am who am I?"

.....It was ok...It wasnt as good as others I`ve seen. I would like to maybe see some better words. Maybe a vocabulary broadening is appropriate...It would help to give them some pazazz. Cause in most of your poems you say the same thing..Just a tip....Dont take it the wrong way.

Ok, the line  I liked was....I'd loved you
Since the fourth grade. But you used some cliche phrases, so maybe just get some more phrases that mean the same but you made them up. * shrugs * I dunno. Pretty good write anywayz.

like the critique message.  

Riley is right, you've used a few cliche'd lines and phrases... sometimes it's better to try and clear your mind when writing.  When you read it over, think to yourself, has any of this been said before?  Am I writing this on my own or am I making a collage of phrases?

Nice work.  Keep writing.

I wasnt tryin to get you upset I was just tryin to help man....I was just sayin that you could probably use some more creative imagry and vocab...You are smart and I know that you can do it....The day I stop bein picky you should worry cause that means that I just dont care anymore...KK? Just tryin to make you the best that I know you can be..
