This poem is dedicated to a friend of mine, we were friends, lovers and well now were back to being friends, yet the friendship is nearly over with. Yet thats another poem that i havent written yet.

This poem is our friend/relationship wraped up in a poem i dont know what its like to other peole since you guys will be the first ones to read it. I hope its ok.

At first when we meet, we flirted
Thinking that it was all in great fun
You and I never thought much of it
Yet in my heart I knew you were the one

I dont know how it happened
I dont seem to quite understand
I thought about how much you meant to me
And that loving you was nothing that I planned

We made a brand new friendship
That was made out of scratch
We started getting to know each other
But then a fight broke out and I realised I wasnt any match

Your friends who I thought that you listened to
Made me give up faith and hope
Of ever gaining your love that I have always wanted
My heart just couldnt cope

I tried to ignore my feelings for you
I pushed them away from my heart
I started to date other people
Getting stressed because we were apart

I moved on thinking that you were mad at me
Because what had happened between me and your friends
I made myself deny our friendship
The silence between us had to come to an end

So I wrote you out an apology
And sent it to you straight away
I wanted us to start talking again
And I felt that this would be the only way

I never knew what you would say
I didnt know what you would do
I half expected you to say go to hell
And that I should once again never talk to you

But you never did say that
You wanted this stupid war to end
You and I wanted us to talk again
Trust in you was what was about to impend

We were a bit distant towards each other
Yet we picked up where we left without a doubt in mind
We started talking again which made me happy
Before the war it was hard to see that you were so kind

You treated me like a person,
Which I had never had happened before
You were there when I had friend and guy troubles
And yet in my heart I wanted you and I to be more

And then one summers night
I Wanted to just give up on you
You were being awkward around me
I thought of shutting you out of my life since I just never knew

You then muttered the words I thought you would not speak
The words that I had been wanting to read for ever
You said to me that you loved me
I couldn?t believe that I nearly gave up on you forever

That night I couldnt help it
I cried so much I couldnt stop
You finally told me that you loved me
Yet things had to planed so that we could not been seen

You planed it out so perfectly
You went out of your way to cover
You did everything in your heart for me
And yet a darkness was soon uncovered

You told me not to tell anyone
Or else we couldnt be together
You told me to promise you once and for all
That my big mouth would stay closed forever

I never listened to you
I never did obey
I never kept my word to you
And giving you up was the wost day

I stuffed up my happiness
I stuffed up yours and Jess's friendship
I stuffed up all of everything that you had given me
And I cant help but hate myself still for being a drip

I muttered the words its over
I said to you that we had to part
I made this all my fault
Because I didnt keep my promise I made to you from the start

I now still feel so horrible
That I lied to you in such a way
I had my dreams come true for once
And yet I just threw it all away

I cant help but apologise
And say that I was such a bitch
I want to make it up to you
Yet I know that we will never be together again...yet I can only wish

I now have to see you
Date Amanda the girl that I love to hate
I cant stand seeing you with her
With tears that fall from my eyes I am calling her a mate

I hurt so much to see you with her
Yet I know that it is my fault
I wanted to be with you for a while
I now have to stand by and watch like an adult

I break down and cry when I hear about you and her
I cant hold it back no more
I want to tell you how much I?m sorry
How much I want to try once more

But I know that it will never happen
And so I have made myself move on
Yet in my heart I cant stop loving you
I cant help but cry and realise you are gone

Hunter you mean so much to me
You deserve the moon and stars
You are with someone a lot better and prettier then I
And I know that my heart will heal of these scares

You have come into my life
And that I can never regret
I am glad that we have had this time together
Im glade that by chance we did meet

Youre a friend that I have grown to love
Youre a friend that I hold so near
My heart will forever have a place for you
And forever I will care

Its been a hard road for us
But our friendship has proven strong once more
I have caused you a lot of stress
And for that Im eternally sorry from my heart to yours.

Happy Valentines day my love
I know its not the same
As getting it wished upon you by your first love
I just hope your at least happy today.

WELCOME TO PASSIONS AYA!!!!!!  You write beautifully!!!!  I might be misunderstanding but, if someone loves you why would you not be able to tell anyone???  

Hope to see more from you!!!!

Thank you guys for such a warm welcome, i have been wanting to post here for a while and i just didnt think anything was great enough. I dont know if it's like that for all people, but i myself go through the whole "this poem is nothing but rubish, and no-one will like it" stage every time i write a poem. So it does make you want to not post your poetry on any site, but this site has been a fave poetry site for a while and i thought i would finally give it a try, i dont have anything to lose, so why not.

And Justbleu I couldnt just tell him because he is the type of male that isnt the "mushy" type of guys, so instead of a response of some snide male remark or something else around that remark this guy just has an "ok" and then moves onto the next subject and yes hes like that with 9/10 of the things he says. Hes a complex person, what i saw in him is beyond me since he doesnt like animals and i do, he doesnt...well....doesnt like much of anything i love and so as i said, what i saw in him is beyond me since he doesnt like getting attatched to a person.

So telling this guy you love him is like telling a fish you love it, you get no reply or some stupid reply.


But i do thank you for the warm welcome once more, its great to be welcomed when your a new comer to this site.

Everyone needs some support once in a while, whether they admit to it or not.  You've come to the right place.  I hope the lessons were gentle ones in retrospect...

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Alicia, while I'm sorry to hear of the conflict as of recently, I'm glad you will always cherish these special memories, I know this feeling all to well because on New Years Day the girl I loved named Joanna confessed she never loved me and had a secret from me for 8 months she loved someone else and now we never talk again, this is a heartfelt debut, I love it! Welcome to Passions, sweet Alicia, may you be inspired by all of us here as we will all be inspired by your lovely words! I can't wait to read more of your lovely words, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Alicia, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
