Running a finger across jagged lips,
Hugging stuffed bunnies
Terrified to sleep; terrified to dream
Hugging you,
Wanting you,
You were never there
You were never mine
I was never here, and leaving now
It's all leaving now
Pretty little dots floating across the screen
Then no pretty little dots,
No colors
Just black
Just white
Going through the motions, right?
Doing it all wrong
All of it wrong
But you were never there
So how come you're still here?
How come I can't remember
I can't remember anymore
Not making words right
Blinking eyes, spacing out, daydreaming
Addicted
Addicted
To your scent, my memory, my dreams
But you were never there
You were never mine
So why don't you leave?
No...
Don't go
I can't want that
Not ever
Not now

A poem about the wonders of 8th grade. Sarcasm.

Yay Meredith! This is a very good poem. As TLS Said below my comment (hello down there!!
), the repetiton was nice. You don't need to get back into writing because it never went away (like mine did hehe) peace out and stuff 
*KT*

Nice poem - nice title too
I especially like the last stanza...this is interesting because it's a bit like a random stream of concisness (sp)
I really like it! YAY!
