    I read a poem with the same title I do believe. They both repeated the title in every stanza, which made it strong and weak. Strong for certain stanza, and weak for others. I guess this is kind of why this poem is getting rated low. But, I will give you a nice 5 :)

    *high 5* !! woohoo!

    Interesting way to display your first "love" but hate can spawn from misplaced actraction... so this worked well and although it didn't reach out to me i believe many others have felt the same way

    I never promised to stay away
    From that other girl
    You saw us together one day

    ^ this kind of confused me i thought you were saying this from a guys point of view before i got to the bottom i still am a bit confused on "Stay away from that other girl" since if you loved a guy i would assume you wouldn't promise to stay away from a boy but i'm sure it makes sense to you

    I never promised to go
    To your funeral
    It was stupid to think I would show

    ^interesting putting a funeral scene in the poem (although i hope he isn't dead) the stanza looks like it wouldn't flow with the length of the last line but it does.

    I never promised to leave
    Flowers on your grave
    I will not even grieve

    ^ another brillant ending you have a way of a making the ending obvious without a feeling that theere should be more
