I know that you want this
more than anything in the world,
your destiny, your dream
and everything you could imagine
but don't you know what its doing to me
you cherish your hobby as much as you love me.
I know you've been practising for years
your the best, the champion
but please don't leave me.
Selfish? Am I really?
not wanting to lose you to a game,
I found you
now I won't let you go.
And if selfish is being a crime,
then I stand convicted,
by all accounts.

Dang it, in that case I might
spend the rest of my life in the
selfish prison!
oh well he's worth it!
Good job!

No matter what, we are all selfish sometimes.  If we werent, then we would all be a bunch of pushovers!  Great poem!

We have to be selfish one time or another.  Not always seeming to be selfish, often just not wanting to be hurt.  Good piece.

If someboy laughs at me, does that make me funny or just plain stupid?

Great job here Kim.....sounds tough but you can get through it. I enjoyed this poem.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Why do you consider it to be selfish?  Maybe you both need to sit and work thing out.  Communication helps a lot ya know.  thanks for the read.  keep sharing.
