When she came into my life I was filled with glee All I feared was that she would not like me When I spoke, she listened and smiled once or twice My fears were lifted for she was truly nice I wanted her to like me more as I liked her I feared that she would not and that upon my heart she would commit murder She failed to return my affection And my fear was realized For sticking my neck out I was penalized Now my fear is growing feeding off my mistake I have dreams of loss and sorrow and it feels as if my soul was raped I sit alone and wonder if I will make it through the night Now it is only myself that I fear can I continue this horrible fight? |

Yeesh...go away for a few days and come back to find all this lovely poetry to read, which will make excellent use of my time and inspire me all the more. I loved the poem, it hit close to home. Lovely. ~Astraea "Sometimes stars can only be seen in darkness." "Sorrow's crown of sorrow is remembering happier things." |

Thank you for the kind words. This is what I consider my best poem so far. I wrote it a few days after the girl in question refused to go out with me and the shaky friendship I had with her collapsed. We went from being friendly with each other to not speaking or even having eye contact. At the time I wrote this I was in a near suicidal depression, which luckily subsided quickly, partly due to my best friend from 10 years ago coming down to visit. I am not a poet, I am merely one who speaks in emotion |

I write only from personal experiences and feelings. I also find that I cannot write poetry when I am happy, I need something thats gnawing away at me to express in poetry. I am not a poet, I am merely one who speaks in emotion |
