I won't run away with you

Like I would ever want to run away with you
you would get tired of me, like you always do,
I will find myself all alone with no arm to clutch in fear
I will cry for you, you will not listen but you will hear

You claim you are in love with me, but it'll be just like before
back in forth you'll go between us, for you don't know who you love more
I cannot get over how you had broken my heart
and long after I had forgotten you, you came back for a brand new start

I just fixed everything, I'd even fallen in love with someone new,
yet when I open my door to see who's there, there is you
I want to scream "Go away!" but I cannot
for in my mind there is a second alternative thought

I hop into your arms wishing you'll never let me go
yet I know you will see her again, and so you will throw
me away as if I were nothing but trash to be dropped in the can
I realize you are not worth loving, you are just a jerky, selfish young man

So to run away with you, at first I almost said yes,
but now that I think about it, how can you even suggest
Go back to your other lady friend and leave me alone
you are more obsessed with females than dogs are in love with bones.

    WOOT!

    *finger snaps in the air*
    Tell him!

    I can tell you wrote this as an expression of something very real that you were feeling, and as such, I tend not to concern myself with the melodic flow as much. This was very good, and again I am struck by your age, and how astute your feelings are! My favorite line, by far... "you are more obsessed with females than dogs are in love with bones."

    Keep your chin up sweetie, and keep standing up for yourself!

    Nice. This is a nice change in ways of saying "no" to someone, and I like how you worded it. I totally agree with Frodofan; you're very confident in saying it, and it adds power to your words. I like the title, because it seems like there could be so many poems saying "I will", and I appreciated the opposition. Overall, I think you did a good job. I did think the rhyming could be a little stronger, though.

    Thanks for sharing with the group!

    I really like the power you have and the confident "no" in this poem.

    The rhythm could be better and I think your last line could be better too. It seems a bit forced as a rhyme. Dogs in love with bones? This isn't the strongest comparison. I think you chose it just because you needed a rhyme. I'd rethink that last line. You should end with more of a punch.

    This is a good poem though. I had something similiar happen to me, so I can relate. If they love you so much, then why did they leave the first time? Hm... guess we'll never really know.

    Keep writing.

    It seems your trying to talk yourself into a decision you have already made. But deep down you know you want to be with him. Very well done.

    This was great, and your rhyming scheme fit the words so well. The development is also wonderful. At the beginning, you start out as seemingly helplessly in love, but in the end it's you that rejects him.
    Power to ya!

    Great ending!

    This one shows a lightness and a bit of humor. I like the way you can discuss your love life a from a distance! It seems you somehow know when love is going somewhere or not! Is this female intuition or? Good work!
