I throw away all of these memories
Toss out all of the tears
Burn all of the kisses
Ban all calmed fears
Give away all the sweet-nothings
Hide all of the "I love yous"
And put away all of the "little somethings"
That meant so much to you
Since your one true love
Tore your heart in two

I like this... but at the ending (since i'm an idiot) i got confused...
(and these are.. sort of.. examples, if i say "you, like some guy" 'you' doesnt have to be YOU, as in, allison)

Is this about.. some guy that you like(d) and 'got rid of', or some guy that did something stupid to you- and left u for his 'one true love'?

lol, i'm easily perplexed..

ne way, though... i'm eating salad.. i like salad almost as much as i like this poem, even though it bewilders me.. in a way (lol)
What was that weird word from "Where the Red Fern Grows"? like... flabbergasted, or something.. lol.
OMG... yesterday.. i dont remember why- but me and Jon were talking about jock-straps.. lol, yea, it was amusing.
Aaron said he liked me, but i don't really believe him.. his exact words were
"Jon does like you- and if he doesnt stop liking you, i'm gonna kick his *bottom*" well- maybe not exact but u get the point.

GREAT WRITE!!
it's goin in my PL (private library)

talk to you soon,

Sara

(sorry for all the spelling errors, if there are any, i'm in a hurry-- and sorry for rambling and talkin about *JON*.. lol)

"It's something I have to do..I was there too..before everything else..I was like you.."
!nin!

Hmmm... I found this one a bit confusing at the end as well :/ I like what you have going here, but if you could maybe explain why you suddenly changed voices here, that'd be awesome

Not bad.  The theme is interesting, as is the style that you presented it in... I thought this was okay, overall, but you've written better.

I like the lines:
"Toss out all of the tears
Burn all of the kisses"
those were really strong lines, I really like how they are in there. it's a really interesting poem, I like it alot, although at first I was sceptical, you won me over.

Sounds like you wrote this in a hurry. It was good but you did change voices in the end which was confusing

Ok....
Sara-You aren`t dumb
Katie-I understand your opinion...I may not agree but I like to hear wht you have to say
And to everyone else that wondered about the change of voices- It was sort of like a narrator stepping out and tellin the rest of the story....Get it? If you`ve heard the song "Guilty Concious" by Eminem and Dr.Dre.It is like they are telling the story but there is also a narrator that sets up the scene...

Nicely done.
