Hi there, I like writing poetry and I might be good at it, I might not be (depends on how you like poetry) so here's some of it. I wrote all of it myself. Hope u like.
Letting Go
They never saw it in my face
You left my life without a trace
They all thought that I would cry
But in my heart I'm asking "why?"
Nothing ever was going wrong
we'd even dance when they'd play "our song"
But then one day instead of "hi"
I never expected you to say "Goodbye"
But the time has come, I've let it go
I wrote this because you should know
You weren't the first and arent' the last
I think the pain will all go past
It will pass in your time and pass in mine
All it needs is a little time
And it will all be gone away
Then we can be friends again that day

I wrote this poem after one of my breakups. I don't remember which one it was. Sometimes I don't feel as bad as it seems, but I can really put pain into a poem. More than I'm feeling that is...
They say that every rose will have its thorns
I was in love, and believed you had none
but now I lie here, and my heart is torn
I guess I should've known you weren't the one
I would have walked around the world for you
But you turned it all into a big show
Made me feel like a fool, you know it's true
But I guess now, the truth I really know
My longing for you still grows every day
THe reason, I really don't know for sure
All I hope now is you're happy someday
Maybe to her, you will be more mature
But still as my love for you grows and grows
Don't ask me why, because nobody knows.

I wrote that about my most recent breakup. I took that one pretty hard still liking him and all. I wrote that about 2 or 3 days after we broke up maybe... If you're not familiar with the form, it's a sonnet, 14 lines, 10 syllables each, lines are ABABCDCDEFEFGG... Hope you like it
Don't forget
So much we take for granted
can all be taken away
cuz when they're gone, we all will think
"I just saw her yesterday."
Something all so normal
as driving back to town
can spread so much heartache
and grieving all around
There was no drunken driver
the seatbelts were all in place
and still, despite all of this
We'll never again see her face
So as the tears fall gently
and many express what all was true
Please, don't ever forget
Tell your loved ones what they mean to you.

This is kindof about my cousin, who died in a car wreck in October '99 and kindof about a girl from my school that I didn't know too well, but I know lots of people who did, and she died in a car wreck July 5, '01.
Confusion
Confusion
words pouring out
their meanings unknown
thoughts and ideas swirling in my world of chaos
The questions unasked
the words unsaid
the tears around me fall
but none from me
I worry, hope and pray
I wonder about them
if they wonder about me
is it just in my daydreams
or reality?
The line between them is so vague
It tears me up inside
Please, stop this madness
when will it end?
I don't know what to do
What troubles me?
I really don't know
All my feelings about everything
bottled inside, waiting to explode
They don't know
they won't leave me alone
free to do what I want to do
I could walk away
just get out of here
never look back
on this little old town
for no reason at all
just be gone in a flash
there isn't any trouble
it's all in my head
I can run from them
but not myself
I'm a "happy" girl
who everyone loves
with the never-ending smile
and who cares about all
but is that me?
I'm not so sure
this confusion surrounds me
but I don't know why
My hopes and dreams
exist in the past
of things long gone
of things that won't be
I imagine my fantasy
is reality
but that's all fantasies are; imagining
I live in my dream-world
day and night
showing none of its existence
to anyone or thing
I feel like I'm in a crowded room
screaming for someone to see me
All they see is a smiling face
not the confusion underneath.
