"In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on." - Robert Frost


When we first met,
I didn't even want to be friends.
You seemed like the weird type,
Or the douchey type.
I could have never guessed what you would really turn out to be.

We started talking more,
Then, finally, you asked for my number,
I was hesitant at first,
Not really wanting to,
But after a few days I gave in.

We texted for awhile,
Always had the best of times,
Never regretted a thing.

We later fell madly in love,
Everything was perfect,
I wouldn't have changed a thing.
Life like that forever,
Was a complete fantasy to me..

Then things started changing,
We both acted differently,
Not willing to listen to each other,
Not willing to talk to the other.

All I wanna know is why?
I thought we both said forever,
I thought we both could pull it through,
Listen calmly,
But now it's all up to you.

I'm willing to listen,
I'm willing to go back to how i was,
If you'd tell me what changed at least.
But I can't make you do a thing, so it's all up to you.

I want to go back,
I want to be the same,
Be in heaven again.
But it's all up to you.

All I can say is I love you,
I don't know if you feel the same.
But I do,
That's all I know,
That's all I will ever know.

Just, let's both take a second look,
Listen better,
And try.

-James Clavell, "Shogun"

In internet language, seems legit. :D I like how it really feels like your own experience, and it feels like exactly how you would tell it. Well done.

I cannot exactly explain how much I love this piece. It has all kinds of emotions rolled into one; it has the feeling that you know who you are. That feeling will bring you up, but, personally, I already think that you're one of the top that there are. Keep going strong, and you'll see how far you can go.

In order to learn to fly, all one must do is throw ones self at the ground, and forget to fall.

It's really good! I enjoyed reading it, and figuring out the true meaning of the poem, and what it meant to me personally. (= Great Job!
