Personally i don't think this poem is all that good....but I tried!! Can't Make You Love Me Look into my eyes Tell me what you see Do you see all the things You were looking for in me? Hold me close I don't want to go Will you stay with me? I have to know Wipe away my tears As I begin to cry Because the world has treated me wrong Life seems like a lie Whisper those sweet words Gently in my ear It's your sweet voice I always love to hear And when the time comes Will you set me free? I promise to come back Because we were meant to be I love you This I can't deny But I can't make you love me No matter how hard I try < !signature--> ~*~GoOd fRiEnDz ArE hArD 2 FiNd, HaRdEr 2 LeAvE, & iMpOsSiBlE 2 fOrGeT~*~tHe HaRdEsT tHiNg tO Do iS wAtCh tHe 1 U LuV, lUv sUm1 eLsE~*~ [This message has been edited by sweetstuff101 (edited 12-30-2000).] |

The poem is sad and sure you can't make him love you.......but you can try. Win him over.....show him your stuff. I used to like this girl for 3yrs.....she had boyfriends and well......i wrote poetry. I liked girls but was the biggest prude kid you'd ever met. Shy as hell......anyway.....i set my eyes only upon her and after a while i was like "im going for it"......and i did.......i told her i liked her and she said "oh i USED to like you".........that would crush somebody but it gave me this positive attitude.....like if she did like me i could win her over again. And you know what? If she said "well i dont like you".........i woulda thought...."you will soon"......Look it's all in the attitude.......think you can do it, and you just might........be positive...and go get him. There is no time to waste.......because time does not wait for anybody. As W.H. Auden said.... "O let not time deceive you. You cannot conquer time." So get out there and work 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! |

I agree with Dopey...it's all in the attitude. You can do it if you believe in yourself. This poem actually opened my eyes a bit about my own personal situation. And for that....you have my thanks. ![]() Angel I am no one if not myself. ~*SeLf PrOcLaImEd FrEaK oF nAtUrE*~ |

I agree with everyone...you can't make someone love you, but you can try. I think it is about your attitude also. Try thinking positive and don't be afraid to tell someone how you feel, because they might feel the same way as you. You never know how another person feels about you until they tell you. I hope everything works out okay. I really loved the poem, it flowed really well and everything fit together perfectly. |

This is very sad....but don't let anything get in your way to getting what you want. Just know when the right time is to let it go. You are so young still, you still hvae so much more to come in the future.

Hey gurlie I know what you are going through! And even though you like him a lot he really doesn't deserve a great gurl like you! But if you really don't believe me and still want him...go after him! You can eventually win him over! Believe me...I am telling the truth!!! Hehe!! TTYL.....call me! |

This poem was very good! I agree with Dopey, however easier said than done. ![]() by the way Dopey, what ever happened with the girl after that? Did you get the hook up?? ![]() xoxo Jenn "A person can never get over a broken heart if they aren't willing to let go of all of the pieces."-- ?? |

You can't make someone love you, you can only make yourself someone that can be loved. Great job on the poem, I think it's relly good ![]() "Disagreements stimulate thought, thought stimulates action, and action stimulates life." --Lakewalker http://www.thehungersite.com |
