Once Before I saw you once before In another lifetime But I'm really not sure I saw you once before I didn't think we'd meet again And now I don't know what we're here for I saw you once before A face in the crowd, leaving no impression Now you're the one that I adore I saw you once before A lonesome figure under the streetlight But that was back in 1944 |

Do you believe in past lives? It is an interesting concept! I must admit that.... Interesting poem! ![]() xoxo Jenn "I'm a big, big, girl, in a big, big world, it's not a big, big thing if you leave me, but I do feel, that I will miss you much..." Emilia |

pretty cool that would make you a lot older than us if you did live in 1944 but i really liked the whole topic -Jeremy "I believe that man will not merely endure: he will prevail. -William Faulkner (Noble Prize Speech.) |

i love the ending. I never thought you'd put it all the way back to 1944. Great write, keep sharing I see no changes, wake up in the morning I ask myself, "Is life worth living or should I blast myself" TUPAC SHAKUR |

Okay, this poem was very interesting and different from what I usually see in here. In a very good way. It was almost suspenseful for me, I'm not sure why. Going back to 1944... I'm really not sure what the signifigance of this is. Could be a past life you mean, could be a metaphorical or non-literal sense, or you could be a bit old for a Teen forum. Either way, excellent poem. One for the library. -Allan We used to hate people, now we just make fun of them. It's more effective that way. --KMFDM |
