When i first saw you

When i first saw you, i was afraid to meet you...
When i first met you, i was afraid to kiss you...
When i first kissed you, i was afraid to love you...
but know that i love you, im afraid to lose you my love

Perhaps you might like to try forming your own ideas for your poems. I'm sure they'd be even better! I look forward to reading your work in the future.

Plagerism. And on your author's comment you need some grammer/spelling check.

It's obvious just from the "Say something about this piece" part that this girl did NOT write this poem. I'm surprised, honestly, that this got passed the editors when it is so completely OBVIOUSLY plagiarised.

this is a beautiful poem, but I'm sorry to say the idea isn't yours. Swapping a few words doesn't change the fact that it's plagiarism. Try writing something original, I'm sure it'll be very good :)

This is unoriginal, You changed a couple of words yes. But, don't take the concept of something that was already once done. Actually think about something and make it your own, that's what makes poems good. If it came from the heart, not you seem something you take it. Sorry, but Not interesting.

Agreed. This needs editing and more work. It's a nice idea though, keep writing!

I don't mean to change the subject... but I can't post comments under my screen name, ElleNicole, for some reason... anyone know why? And could you guys give feedback to my poem, Change? It was just put on the website a few days ago. Thanks so much.

Are you signed in when you comment on things? This used to happen to me until I started clicking "stay signed in" (or something like that) when I logged in.

you are an idiot if you honestly thought you could pul this off as your own work. i get this poem in a text nearly everyday. it has been around forever and i hope you realize it is illegal to copy another's work; i believe they call it Plagiarism.  get a pen&paper and write your own stuff. this piece is pathetically unoriginal.

This is a remake of the Pon and Zi quote

They put

"When I first saw you, I was afraid to talk to you,

When I first talked to you, I was afraid to like you,

When I first liked you, I was afraid to love you'

Now that I love you, I'm afraid to lose you."
