Description You know me.
I'm not one to make sense.
So watch me babble on,
and don't take a single word of it.

You know me.
I burst into tears randomly.
So watch me cry quietly,
and don't realize it's because of you.

You know me.
I worry a little too much.
So watch me panic over something small,
and laugh because I was trying to make you.

You know me.
I talk too fast and too loudly.
So notice the main two words,
and nod and pretend you know what's going on.

You know me.
I over-think things on a daily basis.
So notice me sit there without a word for hours,
and just walk away, like always.

You know me.
I act stupid whenever I'm with you.
So notice me when I'm in your immediate vicinity.,
and run before I notice that you're in mine.

You know me.
I stare a little too obviously at you.
So pretend I didn't do that,
and just go on with your business.

You know me.
I want you to notice me.
So pretend that I don't look so tacky and wannabe-like,
and leave before I make a fool of myself.

You know me.
I love you even though I shouldn't.
So pretend that you never met me,
and leave my life as soon as possible.

I especially like the last stanza because that's how I feel, too. I gave up on trying to stop writing about the same person. The journal entry you commented on explains why.

.-. So are a lot of your poems about that guy then? Mine, almost all of them on dA, are about him and I hate half of them so much because of that...

pretty much anything i've written in the past two years is about him. we were together for 14 months. he broke up with me two days after valentines day. everything i've wrote since then minus a few have been about him.

DX< Ack, that's awful!!
e.e All though, with me saying that, it doesn't help much, I'm guessing. Tehh, sometime I'll check out your work [all of it I mean] and I'll leave a few comments~~

it doesn't bother me. i like to think i'm over all of it, but i'm really not. i just keep filling myself with thoughts like "he doesn't deserve me" and "i'm better than that," etc. check anything posted before "this is how it feels to be single" that might be different because i'm gonna see if i can change the order so they're all in actual chronological order.

Really sweet . Reminds me of me when I was a freshman at HS... Hehe, eh, why not try writing about love in general? Seems like you'd do a good job at that

Nehhh, that's a thought, I actually never thought of that [XD Yeah, even though I've been writing depressing, I-don't-want-to-love poems]. When you say love in general, do you mean something along the lines of... a happier love? Hmm..
Thanks for commenting, I'm glad you liked it.

Mm.. I meant like a philosophical or perhaps some metaphoric poem about love in general - what love is, what it can make of people, what it makes people do, how it's significant... etc. I meant writing a poem about love as opposed to the person you love, you know? Might be satisfying .

Nnn, I'll try that out sometime. When I'm done, will you come back and check it out for me? XD Ahaha, sorry, I sound kind of demanding there, but is it okey with you? And what kind of stuff do you write..?

Sure sure, I'd be happy to check it out ! Erm.. I write different poems. I guess a lot of them are sorta personal, about people I know and things that happen to me. But that only started lately lol. I used to write a lot of love poems and some poems that are just about the world. Also I try to write sorries, but I fail .

Sorries <---What's that?
All my poems are pretty personal, some only make sense to me and the person that I'm writing to/about, so I usually don't put them online... It feels like people are reading my diary, even though most don't even see the poem.

Stories ... I'm also not too good with spelling =\

And yeah, I know what you mean about those poems. I don't mind anyone reading them though, it's poetry after all

silversleet In reply to nakedshooter [2008-06-26 05:13:30 +0000 UTC]

Short stories or long, long stories? [It seems like there's never an in-between for those]
When I have some time Saturday, I'm going to read through all your stuff [because I'm a stalker].

Most of my poems are really bitter and angry, and I don't like to be that way, so I don't want people to think I'm like that way most of the time. I worry a little too much about what people think of me.

XO Oh yahhh, fear meh, for I am Helenn teh fantastical stalkeresssss.
And the philosophical//metaphoric poem is much more difficult than what I had originally thought. Tehhh, I underestimated the topic..
