Hey Everyone!! I found this poem i wrote in like 6th grade about this guy i really liked...wait maybe it was seventh grade....sadly as young love goes it did not work out crying . Very depressing i know, but it just prooves how much your writing can change about the same topic over about a three year period (long young love i know...he was cute, so sue me) So here we go!!!

The Moon Part One
You think you know somebody
but then something appears
and your friendship as you know it
is suddenly unclear

You've known this person ages
and you know that it is true
that clearly this one's someone
who means something to you.

you've never thought of him that way
you've never dropped a hint
but in a sudden change of mind
your heart begins to split

One half says you love him
the other half you don't
you push the thought off to the side and say you will ignore it
and then you know you wont

within two hours your on the phone
with the guy of your desire
and then within the laughs you find
its him that you desire

you ignore your heart yet again
you talk for what seems hours
and then within a few found days
you've recieved a batch of flowers

is it possible your catch of my
might feel the same as me or i
this you must investigate
play your cards you crazy eight

in you mind you say hell no
but day by day your love does gro
you can't wait to catch the phone
just to hear his vioce and glow

but then your heart begins to drop
why would he love me and i
he's just a friend
me? i know not i.

but you'll stand up strait
and act ur own
and hope soon too his love does grow

until you reach ur first real date
with this guy ur pal ur mate
and then by the course of pale moon light
You get your kiss and earn your might.

you've done it!
You've found a love!
and it was all thanks to listening, caring,
and hearing what u got up above.
----------------------------------
Okay like i said, i was like 12??? so that explains the crappy ness of the previous edition. But here's the second part of the poem from like 3 years in the future. (...from then...not now.)

The Moon Part 2

you really know this person
and everythings unclear
too many things have happened
for you to hold him near.

you've been through a lot together
and too eachother you've meant a lot
but finally to me it seems
its time for it to stop

i guess some things have happened
whether we wanted to or not
but from the start i loved you
or at least thats what i thought

its been a long run for us to be
even though we weren't
but just too much has happened
and i always get hurt

and although you've done a lot for me
you've taken some stuff too
i'm not the same girl i was
the girl that was me before you.

and i guess i don't regret it
I loved it too much to say
but bumpy roads have ruined us
and scarred us along the way.

we've both been jelous for no reason
we've both said things we don't mean
but why must you always stop the fight
befor we even begin.

too many things i've tried to say
and too many times i've been stopped
just listen to me at least this once
before my head begins to pop

i love u now i always have
but now i just don't want it
i've had it before but never again
i say we call it quits

i am tired of being second
and being told i'm not
do i really mean that much to you
or do you think i'm just not smart.

I'm the best until another
will come and take my part
just tell me now its killing me
stop playing with my heart

i'll miss the love i'll miss the dates
but i'll also miss the moon
i loved it as much as i love you
but now for me its ruined

for i kissed you like i loved the moon
with wonder, joy, and hope
but then you'd rip my heart out
so the moon is just a joke.

so theres no point in me saying
i'm gone for real this time
and i just hope you realize
that you could always have been mine.
---------------------------------
crying God young love is so horrible. Well like i said, LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCE! Its nice to compare your works.

isnt it great how the way we see love when we were kids gets SMASHED TO PIECES when we grow older? Stupid kids and their perceptions of love. scream
ok, happy Kelly returns. Yeah, well, of course the most obvious comparison is that of skill. We definitely (or at least I hope) write better now than we did as kids. Something else though, is how our perceptions of life change. How we saw things as kids is not how we see things today.

Sometimes its almost sad to look back on old works and see how differently I viewed things. I wish that reality could have remained true. Unfortunately, crap happens, you realize you had no idea what you thinking, and then you learn from the mistake and move on.

...... stressed dang, now I'm depressed. sweatdrop
