About the Poem...

Feeling: discouraged
i'm starting to think that the only person that understood the poem was Lisa. I'm not writing about a boy... there is no point in telling him how i feel! There is no boy! grrrrr..... it's a girl that is so lonely that she makes up this guy and she's waiting to see him, but he's not real! the only question is wheather or not she is insane! there is NO guy! ... so how can i tell him how i feel if there is no boy! grrr... Thank you Lisa, at least you understood the idea of it. ... I miss being able to be with my friends and a boy. Right now it's more like one or the other. Holding my own hand because there is no one to hold it for me. I miss the innocence of things

Are you kidding??? How can you not understand that poem??? It was totally beautiful! I love you Mariah!
sorry I didn't get your poem right. Just know this, poems aren't meant to be got. They are meant to reach other peoples perspective on a personal level. People read poetry to get what they want out of it. I got something else out of it then what you intended. But that's what poetry is for. For the reader to be able to compare it to their own lifes how they would want it to.
but sometimes the reader doesn't mean to offend the writer. Therefore, it shouldn't be a big deal that others think differently about your poetry.

if a poem is suposed to reach a reader on a personal level...why are you telling her about her life...use it in you're own!
