Earlier this year,
I went through a time of depression.
I thought no one loved me;
that I had no friends.
But then I thought of you.
I remembered your love.
I had to hope you still loved me.
Most of me still loves you.
Everyone keeps saying to let go.
They keep telling me to move on.
I say "Don't you dare tell me that!
Don't you dare ruin this for me.
I love him still,
And you better not ruin my hope,
My chance or my love.
No one except me can change the way I feel.
So don't you dare tell me to let go,
or give up or move on
because you think it's been so long
he probably doesn't want me anymore."
I wish I could tell that to people.
When I do they better understand.
Because the only reason I'm here,
Is because of you.
Author notes
This is the title option Alive for You. I hop you like it. It's kind of about love, but it's mostly letting out my anger on the people who tell me to let go and move on. I just want the to stop telling me that, because when they do, that shows that they don't understand anything about what I feel or what I've been through. so if you've told me to move on because there's no hope, please shut up and leave me alone about that. No offense, but I'm sick of it. I can feel what I want, I can do what I want and I don't want to move on. I love this guy with all my heart, mind and soul, so leave that part of me alone. sorry, but that's how I feel.

aww honey live your own life.. if you still have hopes then have them theres nothing wrong with that
well about the write... hmmmm
you've expressed yourself very well BUT I think you need to not make the write so obvious....
perhaps using metaphors could help a bit... or not!
anyways this write is rich of feeling and thats what poetry should be about greatly done!
