You Fell For My Fictional Character

by Jaime   Feb 8, 2006


As all the girls love Johnny Depp
You say that you're in love with me
I might not be rich or famous
But I'm still an actress, a wanna-be

You love the girl you see each day
The smiles, jokes, and happy faces
The girl who can make an adventure
Out of the worlds most boring places

You fell for the girl who never cries
Who's independent, without a care
The shoulder everyone turns to
With the misleading blonde hair

The girl that never gets embarassed
She's so cheerful, that you don't see
That the girl you are in love with
Is a character played by me

The real me knows we'd be great together
But is too scared of rejection
Once you find out what I'm like
And I've lost my play, my act of protection

So here I sit, avoiding you
Maybe someday you can understand
That because I hold my secrets within it
I will not let you take my hand

It's like the girl on the movie screen
She's a character, she doesn't exist
That's the reason you can't be with me
And your charm is easy to resist

    A well written poem I can relate to, though not in the obvious way.

    Judging by the other comments, it's a poem quite a few people can relate to. That, perhaps, is one of the great secrets of writing: the reader has to relate to the story, to maintain interest.

    Well done.

    Ok, i dunno how u do it.. but u do.. no matter wat u talk about, its always honest and it always makes sense... ur rhyme, ur flow, and most of all, ur content are found to be very close to the reader's heart.. so im wondering how come not many ppl commented on it.. ur title was attractive, too. i loved this poem, as im sure ill love the rest, but i gotta go now.. ill make sure i read the rest of ur poems.. ur awesome!! u must be so proud of urself..
    never stop writing
    be who u are, nobody else is gonna be
    take care

    Yeah, I think it's really good though I didn't like the first verse. I don't know why, but it seems like it doesn't belong to the poem! However, well written!
