''~*Contest Piece*~''Once I'm Gone I'm Gone*~''

by leif Estenson   Oct 19, 2005


Your heart has healed
But thats unreal,
I really don't think thats how you feel.

If we both kissed
I bet you'd miss
The way things were, so I persist.

But now I'm sad,
I'm almost mad,
If I don't stop things could get bad.

I've cried and cried
You've said goodbye
But I just can't un-der-stand why.

I must abstain
You've caused such pain
If I don't stop I'll go insane.

I must confess
My hearts a mess,
I'm trying to keep myself in check.

It's not my fault,
We're in this bout,
I wanted to work things out.

Life's not long,
I will move on.
But know this once I'm gone I'm gone.

This poem was written some time In august 2005, and put on the back burner, it was finished October 24, 2005 and will be entered into a contest representing our High-school so any input is greatly appreciated as well as votes.

    Er...I don't know how exactly to tell you what I think. Just keep it the way it is, if you believe it exposes your feelings in the best way. That's all that matters.

    Hmmm...I have to say that it's nice, and it rhymes, but I think that you can add more sophistaicated words than "sad, mad, etc." That would make the poem seem more meaningful. Try to be more colorful.
