What's the point?
Hanging on to something that's already gone?
Just look at the way
I force myself to being someone else every day
What's the reason -
that I've stopped developing to match the season?
I see in your eyes
You're growing bored with these angelic smiles
I know it is love
I feel it coming from within and not above
I'm happy with it
I'm not keen on letting go, even a bit
I like it this way
I finally found someone from whom I don't want to stray
Not one time
Did I wish for this boy to leave my side
....But what is the point?
Hanging on to something that's already gone?

ooooo... it must hurt a lot to have him gone if you loved him that much... all i can say is i sympathize, not empathize. i've never had a boyfriend or anything, so i wouldn't know how it feels to have the guy you love gone. this poem has a lot of feeling in it. good write my friend.

btw, this is in fact about my first love. I have never met anyone who has made me write more than him. I have so much pain, and so much love connected to this boy.
Love, MJ
