So many love songs have been written

All so enthralled with another person

Talking about how they have been so smitten

And all of their overexertion


Starting with the first sight

And having a new hope

Filling up hearts with a happy light

Though it’ll be just another haunt


Spending time with someone

When they spend none with you

You thought that you’d become one

Now all you see is blue


But what do I know?

This is just what I’ve been told:

That love has changed from years ago

It used to be you’re with someone and grow until you’re old


So many love songs have been written

Each from a prominent feeling

Saying that they’ve been bitten

With love, but all that’s left is healing

My name is Victoria Passo, and I'm a Middle Creek High School sophomore. I'm in five clubs at my school; Latin club, SGA, Women's Empowerment, Crochet Club, and Mental Health Awareness Club. Outside of school, I spend my time at my dance studio or reading books. I wrote this piece during my Creative Writing class, which is definitely one of my favorite classes this semester. My teacher has pushed me to write to my full extent, which is particularly helpful since I enjoy writing and English classes the most! Thank you for considering publishing my poem.
