Sometimes I get scared that
Love is never gonna come around
Again
I had the boy, I had
All those nice little feelings
All those wonderful little moments
All those little lies
I realized that I wasn't gonna get
Everything I wanted
So I held out
I had myself, I had
My dignity
My self respect
My loneliness
I felt as though I could find another
As easy as I found the other
But I was wrong
I had nothing, I had
No love in my life
No sweet little kisses on my forehead
No embraces to look forward to
And still I am looking,
For that feeling,
The feeling I thought I had so
Long ago
No luck so far....



The night is my companion
The solitude my guide
Would I spend forever here
And not be satisfied?
Sarah MacLachlan, "Possession"

You really express your feelings beautifully through this piece. Love is a funny thing, when you think that you'll never possess it again, it sneaks up on you. The person that you are meant to be with will come to you, you just have to keep your eyes peeled. Best of luck!

I also think that this one was well written, it really gets your feelings out.  Great job on the poem

Hey this was pretty out there. THe in-your-face-believe-it-cuz-it's-true style rocks!
I loved it.



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!
