I said, "He's everything I want."
They said, "You can't have him."
I said, "He's everything I need."
They said, "You can't have him."
I said, "What does age matter?"
They said, "You can't have him."
I said, "I talk to him everyday."
They said, "You can't have him."
I said. "I know what he feels."
They said, "You can't have him."
I said, "He knows what I feel."
They said, "You can't have him."
I said, "He makes me happy."
They said, "You can't have him."
I told hinm how he makes me feel.
He told me, "I can't have you."
They were right.

Good
Sometimes it's hard to listen to our friends, even when we know they are right deep down inside. We just have to find out for ourselves sometimes. Keep up the good work. Good luck in the contest. ttyl Tali
