I think about the year that has gone by
-It wasn't a year; it couldn't have been, because I can still remember the first day -
The times we shared, all that we've laughed and all that we've cried,
all those moments when we felt we'd rather give up,
but it was all worth it
-of course it had to be; why else would we be there? -
I can't think about saying goodbye
How can I?
I'm trying hard not to cry but I'm crying inside.
-Why am I crying? It can' be over yet. Time couldn't have been that cruel -
I think about each one of them,
and the way they made me laugh,
the way they drove me crazy,
and the way they touched my heart.
How can I say goodbye?
Say goodbye and let it all become just memories,
to look back on and cry as I am crying now,
to remember with love
Why does time go by so quickly?
-It doesn't. It couldn't have. It hasn't. If it had I would have been prepared, and can't you see that I'm not? -
I definately can see where you're coming from on this poem. It expresses many feelings at once. Nice job!
I thought I'd stop by and read some of your stuff, and I read quite a bit, but this is definitly my favorite of any of them. I think this line, "I'm trying hard not to cry but I'm crying inside." just gets to me... I've felt that way once before! Kudos, this is absolutely excellent!
