Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Friendship: 4 of 301
If for twenty years you went awayAnd I never saw you the while,Whenever you returned someday,I'd recognize your smile.If other people didn't know you,Because you were so changed,I would always see right through,To me, you could never be strange.Your smile is more familiar to me,Than the one upon my head,Which every morn in th...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Growing up: 6 of 98
I want to be a girl,Yet I'm forced into womanhood.I must seem like a fool.By so many I'm misunderstood.If I act like who I am,I am said to be acting silly.If I grow up and act mature,I am sullen, moody, or chilly.Why must I grow up?Why must I face the world?I want nothing more,Than to stay a little girl.Work, relationships, s...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Challenges in friendship: 2 of 29
When I looked blue, you made me laugh.When I was sad you knew just what to say.You were the greatest friend I had,But that was yesterday.Today you seem distant, off in the clouds,And you know it kind of scares me.You mingle with people and laugh with the crowds,But it seems you don't care about me.I'll continue to try to be c...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: True love: 16 of 196
He is the sun that lights my day,He is a torch to light the way,He is my prince and I can say,He is my one true love.Without love one cannot know,Or see the lovers' glowSurrounding each pair, and oh!He is my one true love.One thought of him is bliss.I'll keep on saying this:(Upon it I insist)He is my one true love.Without him...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Pain from love: 90 of 917
I knew it was too good to last.I knew it couldn't be true,But it should have lasted longer.I thought I'd still be with you.You said often that you loved me.Then what? You fell out of love?Even though I know it's over,It's still you I'm thinking of.I can't seem to stop the tears,Wrenching free of my eye.I don't care who sees m... More..

You've got me unnerved, and I know whyYou've got me singing love songs againI feel so silly, you're under my skinI've been listening to love songs againI have feelings, emotions, I'm not made of iceThe people I draw are smiling againI enjoy romantic comedies, and that's not itYou've got me saying "awwwww" againI've lost my sa...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: The masks we wear: 25 of 172
Do you think you know me?Do you think you know my mind?You only see a mask,Hiding what's inside.Day in, day out, all the time,There's pressure to laugh and smile.You think there's something wrong,If I'm quiet once in a while.I want you to understand me,To know exactly who I am.But I can't be myself.I don't know if I ever can....
