You & Me
October 8, 2009
I saw you today,
But you're not as I remember.
Your eyes no longer sparkle,
You've changed since last September.
You were so full of life,
Yet now you are so cold.
Your personality has tarnished,
When you once had a heart of gold.
You fell out of my life,
Just like leaves in the fall.
We were so very close,
Now you're not here at all.
You saw me today,
I'm the same as you remember.
My eyes still sparkle,
I've not changed since last September.

Thank you for capturing every emotion I feel when I look at the people who used to be closest to me who have fallen out of my life. They all changed, but I was always the one still there, unchanging. This is a beautiful work. I showed it to all of my friends. Hopefully one day I will be able to write something this well done. Keep writing

This was an amazing poem for me, partially because everyone, including myself, can relate to it. It sounds like you wrote from the heart, which makes it all the more touching. Please keep writing
