ok this is just something i was thinking about...this is only the second poem ive written ever so please be nice  

Once a little girl
now trying to be a woman
finding out it's hard
with all these adult decisions
i've made a mistake
and corrected it with another
even if it meant
i'd never become a mother
i think about you
almost everyday
wishing i was you
in every way
i was given the chance
to become what she wanted me to be
even if it meant
you couldnt be with me
i wonder what you think of me
if that can be possible
wonder if you still love me
even though its kinda impossible
can you forgive me and my childish ways
cause in the future maybe in a couple of days
we'll be together like it was suppose to be
and we will be happy just you wait and see

That was a wonderful poem!  You sure that's only your 2nd? Happiness is a human desire, and you captured it wonderfully

 "Even a fool knows you can't touch the stars, but it doesn't stop a wise man from trying."
Harry Anderson, "Night Court"

This is a lovely poem - very sad subject.
And, one of those hard lessons in life,
that most come across the stepping stones
of growing up.  

Thank you for writing about this. It is
done very well!

Crystal, you couldn't have expressed it better than this.  Truly magnificent how the thoughts and emotions are captured here.  It has an ending that grasped me too.

I believe you expressed yourself very well and beautifully too.  I don't think you need worry about anything nice "nice" concering this piece.
