Becca and Jeffrey

The way you look at her,
the way your eyes light up.
you smile without moving your mouth.
your arms slips around her back,
the curve of it you embrace.
Everything about her you love,
together forever no matter what.

I pass you two
and one thought lingers:


she could have been me.

    aww I'm so sorry, we always dont know that something is wrong to do until afterwards. Retrospect is all fine and dandy, but hell... What's the chance of knowing? It's a shame.

    Had you included an explanation of how "she could have been me" with an 'Oh S@%* moment', I would feel it is more in line with the prompt, but it is a good poem, nonetheless.

    This is really well written.Such a sad thing when we wish we could be someone else but we all do at one time or another.I think you should have won gold on this poem though it was easy to follow and to relate to.I do not think that I would revise this though it was perfectly written.Timeless words I think that we all share at some point in our lives.Great job glad that I got the chance to read this.

    My favorite part was probably the ending, how it took a turn into a jealous, personal issue. Then again it is also my least favorite part only because you didn't continue on with your feelings. I wouldn't change anything about this poem, its flow is steady and entertaining. Thanks for posting this on the reading list :]

        You know, now that I've read it a 2nd time. I don't think it'd be necessary to continue, it'd just rant on. Thanks for putting this up though :]
