Five Mistakes

Every single day,

I think of five things in my head.

Hoping to find a away,

to take back things i've said.



Number one on my list,

is something I must do.

He was my first kiss.

I wish to retract my "I love you too."



He shouldn't have said those words...

because I know they had no meaning.

He said it to two others since, and it hurts.

I'm not a rag doll, I'm a human being.



The second thing on my list,

is the boy Ash calls a girl.

If I had it my way we would've kissed.

But I regret I said yes, such a bad word.



The third thing on my list,

is a careless mistake.

It was he I should never had kissed,

I guess thats why we "took a break."



I felt nothing when his lips touched mine.

I feel bad for leading him on.

If we chould just be friends, all would be fine.

I wish that memory would just be gone.



The fourth thing on my list,

was introducing her to dre.

I thought all they'd do was kiss...

but they did more than i'm allowed to say.



He carved her heart into a trophy,

and pushed it down as it shattered.

It's all because of me...

Her tears fell as the pieces scattered.



The last thing on my list,

is me, myself..and I.

Death is the purest kiss.

Perhaps I want to cry?



Erase me, because I'm a waste.

I don't want to hurt anyone else.

You think you know me, but this is just a taste.

I'm alone. Cold. All by myself.

Jess, don't forget yourself. I love you and you are not a mistake. We all MAKE mistakes but we are not mistakes. You and I have a purpose in life and whether you want to believe it or not God is the only way. I'm slipping from him just as you did. We both need him and each other, Love you

Hey- I randomly happened upon this poem- it is very well written- for awesome job for that! I like how it kinda has a melody to it- at least that I could pick up on. Now about the topic of choice- I agree that everyone has 5 things (or more) that they would like to forget- i just disagree with the last thing u'd like to forget...ur a good writer and thats something to be proud of- keep it up and don't forget to look for the good things in your life (writing). Peace out- Joel
