What happened to that promise,
the one you made not so long ago?
When you said you wanted me to be with you,
and that you wanted me to be your girl.

You asked me to wait until
we knew the time would be right.
But when the right time came,
you where nowhere to be found.

I wanted to be with you,
I wanted to love you like no other.
I told you the way I feel,
through my letters, words, songs, and poems.

What happened to that promise,
the one you made not so long ago?
When I believed you wanted me with you,
and that I would actually be your girl.

Thanks, Stacye.  Like I said earlier, I wrote this because I found out that someone who means a lot to me, Todd, isn't going to give me the chance that I was promised.  I wrote lots of poetry for him, and I posted a bunch of it.  Now I guess it has no meaning to him, although it means something to me...

Kristi,
I"m so sorry. I hate to see you in pain. I don't like it when you look so down at school. Just remember I'm still your best friend and I will always love you and will always be here for you.

I really loved your poem. It made me cry cuz I know exactly how you feel. Don't let him get you down. Party girl!!! *hugs*

Sorry to hear your pain. You know, Jerome once said "Men are pigs!*". Well he was right.


*Except for Jer. He knows how to treat the ladies!

you know, Jer and Jerome make such a good point. You spend such a long time trying to win them over and after they break your heart you wish you'd never given them the chance. This is a good poem, dont let a guy get you down, they are never worth it.

Okay, here's the deal.  For whoever was here when I first started posting my poetry, I wrote a few for Todd, who had stolen my heart away when we first met.  He wanted to be with me, but was having problems.  Now, when I think I finally have my chance, he totally blows me off, and breaks my heart, and it hurts.    
Thank you all for caring, being there, and responding to my poem.  It means the world to me.
