To fall in love or break it up
And if young love is just a game
Anything but I'd go through hell for you
And I haven't been this scared in a long time
And I'm so unprepared This world's an ugly place
But you're so beautiful to me

Two different people, two different places
Through a one way window with two different faces
It was you who told me that, it wouldn't work because we come from different places and that we mask ourselves with differnt faces

She looks at me and doesn't know the words to say But it's not her, she just doesn't feel quite right today
All these things she'd say and do were never planned But how is she supposed to make me understand

When I woke up, the rain was pourin' down.
There were people standing all around.
Something warm going through my eyes,
She lift her head, she looked at me and said,"Hold me darling just a little while."
I held her close. I kissed her our last kiss.
I found the love that I knew I had missed.
Well now she's gone, even though I hold her tight.
I lost my love, my life, that night.
And now I understand that it wasn't not up to me
And now I understand that all she did was never planned.

I'm speechless....uhhhhhhhhh....I'm just hoping this didn't happen in real life...Did it? I hope not, cause right now it's making me feel really bad. I just can't imagine anyone else going thru something like this.  I hope I misunderstood the poem for it's tragic.

Truely touching, the words seemed to flow very well from your heart, great job at representing your sadness. I hope to read more.

it takes a true poet to express deep thoughts and your right on the brink keep writing and soon you will be one of the greats.

TrueLUV ~ I really liked this poem.  And though the ending is from Pearl Jam's Last Kiss, it seems to fit really well with what you were writing of. ~ Emma
