What do you think of me now? Now that you know all about me Does it change what I am to you? Does it change what you see inside me? I hate knowing my world could crumble With the parting of your lips With a movement of your mouth There my secrets slip To the ears of the nearest gossip Waiting ofr something to spread Then its all over school And reality becomes what I dread Living a lie is more fun Than telling all my problems to you I never think you'll believe me But its all way too true... This is for my "best friend"... *If the only place I can live my dreams is in my sleep, then I'll sleep forever!* |

Ooh... brilliant. It gave me goosebumps. I love how descriptive you were in the second stanza of words. Very well done, this whole poem was quite creative. Oh and I noticed your reply pattern. It's great to reply to everyone, I'm glad that you are. But a word of advice, reply to everyone before you post your own. That way, you don't bury your own post below all the ones you reply to. Just do your replies, and leave yours right on top. That's my tip for the day. ~Allan Love is like the wind; it can suddenly blow softly in your face or it can come strong. ~~Aaron (Low Man's Lyric) [This message has been edited by Allan Riverwood (edited 04-11-2001).] |

Thanks Allan, but I dont mind. I figure if its any good, it'll make its way back up there. Thanks though! *If the only place I can live my dreams is in my sleep, then I'll sleep forever!* |

The dedication at the end was what really made this powerful. you used soem great images and the poem flowed well. keep posting your work. Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing. |

You know I've never been in this situation (my friends and family always say I'm too secretive), but I've always feared it. Not really about the gossip at school but instead that their words will hurt me personally. I wish you well with this. Oh by the way....great poem. I had a dream once that I could fly and I laughed at everyone and kicked them in the back of the head because they couldn't fly too. :) |

This is a great description of what being the gossip round school is like... hang in there... oh and great job on the poem. Andrew " No Army can conquer a galaxy, yet faith alone can overturn the universe." |

This is such a powerful poem. It hit home.. hard. I understand what you're saying, and I understand about the fear of secrets being discovered. Very nice job! --Marie "Hope is a thing with feathers that perches in the soul." --Emily Dickinson |
