so I sit and write it in ink.
I have so much I have wanted to tell
but now I think I'll write it instead.
I want to tell you I love you
and have for some time now.
I tried to hate you and forget about you
and sometimes even tried to be mad at you.
The fact is though that I could never hate you.
I used to think that you didn't care
and only wanted me when you wanted your share.
Some people may say I have missed my chance with you
and although that may be true
you'll always be in my heart.
This may sound corny but it's what I feel inside.
I'm tired of always keeping it all bottled in
and tired of having to hide.
As long as your around I'll be fine.
Just talking to you makes me warm inside
and when I'm down you make me laugh.
Not one of those fake laughs
but something that makes my day.
You may not know me that well
but this I know is true,
I have loved you since we were young
and day by day that love grows stronger.
Other girls may say they love you
but just remember this...
where were they when you were growing up?
and did they love you then?
fourteen years of loving somebody is a long time.
And no matter what happens I will always love you.
Every heart beat I have is because of you,
every breath I take is for you,
and every time you see me smile,you'll know it's because of you!!!

So similar to one that I wrote about 6 months ago to steven when I couldn't say it to him because I know he didn't feel comfortable with love and emotions, so I wrote it as if I was talking to him. One day you might be able to tell them how you truly feel? I hope so. It may be the same way too.

this was such a sweet, sweet poem! it was so cute to read.
i enjoyed it

This is exactly how I feel about someone right now. It really made me happy to know that I’m not the only one who feels it. It has a wonderful flow and rhyme to it. Amazing word choice. My favorite parts are:
“I want to tell you I love you
and have for some time now.
I tried to hate you and forget about you
and sometimes even tried to be mad at you.”
And:
“Just talking to you makes me warm inside
and when I'm down you make me laugh.
Not one of those fake laughs
but something that makes my day.”
It’s so very sweet. And I hope that the person mentioned in this poem realizes how you feel about them and feels the same way back, because even though I don’t know you, I know that everyone deserves a chance at love. Absolutely one of my favorites in the competition.
Thank you and good luck in my contest.

This piece just made me say "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" ~ who hasn't had that one special person who you really liked a lot ~ for whatever reason you turn away but somehow keep coming back ~ knowing thats the one for you.
So many times I've wanted to tell my friend~ but, at the last minute changed my mind... Weird how life can take you sometimes ~
Nice write ~ I did enjoy it ~ Thanks for entering the "Set the Bar" Contest ~ good luck to you! -

Congratulationg to you on the three honorable mention trophies. This was a very uplifting poem. I loved it. It is sometimes so hard to tell that special someone that you love exactly how you feel due to the fear of them being chased a way by the feelings you have that are so dear. This poem has a very loving message to it. I absolutely love it. Good luck to you and this poem in this contest. Keep up the excellent work.

nice poem! good luck!!!

"though I can never explain my emotions to well" - "to" at the end would be "too".
"but somethign that makes my day." - "somethign" would be "something".
I felt that the overall poem could use a more structured form, perhaps syllable count, or something. To make it a more fluid read.
Other than that: a nice poem that you have written here.

Sorry, but we wanted letters, not poems. Nice try though.

and did they love you then?
