The Poem that went like This

by xx5OUL   Aug 21, 2005


A boy and girl were going out
the girl was overjoyed
but the boy was being distant
and the girl felt she was being toyed

so she wrote the boy a poem
about how everything was amiss
and she let out all her feelings
the poem went something like this

"i know what I'm about to say
may seem like i don't love you
and it's not that i don't care
but its just that you act like
sometimes, I'm not even there

how can you treat me bad
when all I've done is good?
when all I've ever given you
is all i ever could?

why won't you ever spend
any time with me
cause if you're just going to treat me like
some accessory

i wont put up with it
i WILL leave you for better
make you take back your ring
and make you take back your sweater

so please, please tell me
what's on you're mind
cause i want this to last
i know you're the best I'll find"

she looked up from the paper
to find him looking sad
she asked, "what's wrong baby?
was my poem really that bad?"

he looked at her and said
"no, it told me how you felt
and why you felt that way
so now i just want to think it over
lets have a break, okay?"

her eyes filled with tears
as her heart broke
and she knew her sadness showed
when she softly spoke

they agreed to have some time
some time to spend alone
and think of where the relationship was going
then they would talk on the phone
a month had passed, and still
there was no sign of the ring tone

the girl was tired of waiting
she wanted him to come back
she wanted to say sorry,
she wanted to change, in fact
so she rang him up
and knew that she would tell him whats on her mind
for this was the last straw
she'd pour out her heart for the second time

when he answered her heart stopped
"hello? hello?
is someone there?
hello? hello?
as he went to hang up, she said
"its just not fair
its just not fair that you have a life
while i stay back and see
that you can enjoy the party
enjoy life without me

so i have a couple questions
to find out whats going on..."
he interrupted and said
"will this take very long?"

she continued, undeterred
to the point of her call
and so she started saying
"do you like me at all?"
"no"
"do i ever cross your mind?"
"no"
"would you cry if i went away?"
"no"
"your life or mine?"
"mine"

the girl knew that this was it
this was how he feels
she hung up the phone
and ran too her room
her eyes swimming with tears

a couple hours later
the fateful doorbell rang
the girl lifted her head up
and out of bed she sprang

she opened the door
and to her surprise
was the boy with flowers
he asked, can i come in?
the rain is starting to shower.

the girl lead him, silently in
as he took a seat
he presented her with flowers
with their scent so sweet

he looked at her tear stained face
and longed to wipe them away
by there was something he had to do
something he had to say

"i know you might not like me right now
you might be even hating
but please please hear me out
so then, we could start dating"

at his words, the girls ears perked
as slowly he went on
"i don't like you cause i love you,
you never cross my mind, cause you're always there
i wouldn't cry, because i would die
and i would choose my life over yours, because YOU are my life..."

the girl slowly shook
as he stood and took her hand
he wiped the tears from her face and said
"do you understand?"
the girl shook her head yes
and they shared a kiss
and so they lived happily ever after
after the first try was amiss

**i know its long...my bad >.
