this is my first poem, so i know its not that great but i hope ya'll like it


this inexplicable feeling
that will not go away
fills my head with sorrow
each and every day

saying i hate you is easy
admiting i'll always love you is hard
what should i do? i lie in the grass
and stare at the stars

thinking to myself
why do i feel this way
i know the real reason
its because i am afraid

i'm afraid of what you'll do
afraid you won't care
afraid you'll leave me alone
afraid you won't be there

everytime you talk to me
i try to find something wrong
to make me love you less
but yet my love gets strong.

i used to think your perfect
but that is just not true
its the little imperfetions
that make me love you as i do.

Welcome to P.I.P.!  This is a pretty good first poem. I liked the theme you wrote about-It reminds me of "Hate Me" by Blue October  to some extent. Overall I thought it was pretty decent albeit some conventions and little problems in the flow in the first stanzas. But hey that just one person's opinion. Hope to read more from you.

Welcome to piptalk. Really good first post. Like the erson above me, I'm impressed. I liked it alot. I can kinda relate ot it, but I don't think I've ever been in really "true love". When you talked about thelittle imperfections that totslly hit the spot. That was my favorite stanza. Great work. I'm puting you and your post in my library. I'll look for more done by you.

Hey broken_smile1469,

Sorry I'm so late in welcoming you to piptalk but... WELCOME TO PIP!!

Like everyone else said awesome first post, I loved this poem. I can't believe that it's your first attempt it's so amazing, way better than anything I first wrote!

I really loved this part though,

"this inexplicable feeling
that will not go away
fills my head with sorrow
each and every day"


I liked the flow, the wording, and the way you broke it down into stanzas. It was a very good job by you and I can't wait to see more
