He's something I want,
so very bad.
But can't have.

I want his sweet smile,
so very bad.
But can't have.

I want his gentle touch,
so very bad.
But can't have.

And I want all his love,
so very bad.
But can't have.

i'd give eternity to be by your side-goo goo dolls/City of Angels soundtrack

goodness is found in the heart, not the money.

When i red this:
"He's something I want,
so very bad.
But can't have."
I instantly thought of Jeremy
and last night. I quoted those exact words! I swear it!
and then I cried. But anywayz I reeeeeally liked this because of my situtation and its a small and meaningful piece
goodjob!

Great job on the poem. Sounds like something we can all relate to though. Some people are just untouchable.  

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

I can relate to what you're saying.  I think many people can.  You expressed yourself very well.  Nicely done.
