[*26*] ~Never Let Go, a poem

i cant believe it!! my first poem in a bunch of months. sheesh!! anywayy, it was made 2 nites ago, cuz i wuz racking my brain cuz i knew i needed to make a poem, or a story, or watever!! but anywayy, this poem is dedicated to Anne Marie (annp on my friendz list - who in fact hasn't been on in awhile) for her ever-famous quote, "I won't let go." _________________________________________________________________________ ~Never Let Go~ I remember us in the car like yesterday When I just had to ask you if you were okay “No,” you had said, and when I asked why You just dropped me off and said everything’s fine But that was the last time we ever spoke Your hold onto me was making me choke I’d call you up and keep listening As your phone would continue to ring and ring But then one day, I just had to stop And I thought through the things that I thought I forgot I found that I was sick of your luscious red lips And how your laughter rang out when we drove out for kicks And how your miniskirt only barely covered your thighs The hypnotism of those deep dark brown eyes Me holding my breath when your lips moved close How your touch gave me chills like a dark risen ghost All the fake makeup on your pretty face The hypocrisy and secrets hidden at your place The lies and surprises stitched into your smile And those other things before that I thought were worthwhile On that final day when I realized all this I found out that there was nothing of you that I missed And your invisible hold onto me disappeared Being separate from you wasn’t as bad as I feared But then today, you came crawling back Saying it wasn’t your fault why you were like that You said you were sorry, I saw it in your eyes That you had moved on from that part of your life But soon I found one thing that was like long ago Turns out that we were both not ready to let go… _________________________________________________________ The main inspiration of this was given by a REALLY old poem made by one of my old friendz: Jake. Enjoy it. cya, ~Busy Me

Sure...you can get your work published for free. That's actually how I did it. The place I went to is www.poetry.com.All you do is submit a poem...and if they like it enough..they'll let you know and you can get it published at no cost.It's pretty cool..of course they'll try to get you to by a book w/ your poem and alot of other peoples work...but that's optional.And it will be completely copyrighted in your name too.Well good luck on that!Peace!
