You spoke to me with words of glitter Little specks of silver lies That reflected everything bad Inside of you You intoxicated me Hoping that it would liberate me And it did You got everything you wanted That Night And I believed whatever it was that you might have said The only ways I have of remembering are my friends It seems that you said the same things to them I was a virgin Not only to sex, but to you You barely knew my name You just kept saying, "Mi Chica" My Lady in Spanish Hoping that you'd never have to say, "Sarah," Because you might get it wrong I didn't know how to act afterwards I just picked up my things and left I crawled over you Without a goodbye I felt like saying, "Thank you," But only out of spite I didn't want to degrade the situation any more And when I saw you the next night, I didn't want to look at your face I felt that you'd be smirking And if I came upon your eyes, Everyone would know my dirty secret That I was a slut I slept with someone I didn't even know And it was my first time And I was already dating someone That treats me just the way I want I didn't even like you or ever want to see you again But I felt gross, like I should want you to take me out When, in actuality, I just wanted to move on Take your words of glitter and glue them to that page in my life And before the glue dries, turn the page So that it's stuck and I can never open it up again |

welcome to passions....i hope you enjoy your stay here. About the poem.....what to say......what to say......this was very emotional. I don't much know what to say about these things. Keep posting though, i hope to see more of your work.  "I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust." I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them! |

Hey. Welcome to Passions.. This was a really good poem. I just loved the ending!! I'm not one to give advice..so I'll just go away...writing helps to ease troubles sometimes, so keep it up... ~Carly The grindstone of life will either polish us or wear us down, depending on what we're made of. |

 Welcome to Passions The pain and regret shown in this poem aren't the kind of thing anyone should ever have to go through. This is a tough situation that I know I've never been in, so like the other two I don't really know what to say. About the poem, I think it's well written, and I like how you started and ended it, great job. ....and keep posting and replying  "Disagreements stimulate thought, thought stimulates action, and action stimulates life." --Me!! |

Hey! Welcome to passions!!!! This poem was great, sad but it had a very positive outcome. Sometimes its best just to turn your back and walk away on the past, some things you just shouldnt re-live. Great entrance into passions and look forward to seeing more from you =o) |

Welcome and a very good poem, but there is nothing that any of us can type here to ease any pain. The best way is to let it out in your writing , because that is your thoughts in their purest form. Good luck Keoni |

"Take your words of glitter and glue them to that page in my life And before the glue dries, turn the page So that it's stuck and I can never open it up again" This is a great poem. I love the metaphor you used in the quote I've given. I'm sorry that you had to learn this the hard way (if this poem applies to you). Remember, just because you gave it up one time doesn't mean that you have to give it up every other time. Anyway, welcome to Passions. I hope to see more of your work around here soon! PS-check your e-mail False gems may shine as brightly as the genuine article, but there are always those who can tell the difference. |

ive got to agree with LoveBug, these lines awe struck me- "Take your words of glitter and glue them to that page in my life And before the glue dries, turn the page So that it's stuck and I can never open it up again" Welcome, and I hope to read more and more of these wonderful peices, sorry about this situation though! jeremy r "...if you've never met me, then you've no right to judge me. I have a good heart, but this heart can get ugly." ~DMX~ |

Welcome to passions!!! I have so much in my mind...You brought back memories of what happened to me...But in a little different way...The guy was someone really close to me...And after it happened I regret it so bad...I was drunk and it just happened...Sometimes guys get the best of us and vice versa...And some of those are things we cant change...Like giving in to the peer pressures of sex... I hope to see more of your work around!!! ~*Love is sometimes like a rose. Beautiful in the beginning but dies in the end.*~ |

WELCOME TO PASSIONS!!! I could feel a bit of the pain you are going thru and the shame you felt when you saw him again. I was just wondering, did you ever tell him no. Whether you are intoxicated or not, if you said no, it means no. if he still continued, that's considered rape you know. It also is considered rape if you are too intoxicated to even realize what was going on and he took advantage of that. I suggest you talk to some counselor, okay? Thanks for sharing your poem. I see no changes, wake up in the morning I ask myself, "Is life worth living or should I blast myself" TUPAC SHAKUR |
