I Almost

I Almost

A Poem by Ashley Ree
"

Lesson Learned.

"

I almost,

told you I loved you.

I fell for you the second you spoke to me.

Didn’t I tell you? 

Didn’t I tell you that you were my first?

My everything? 

And my all?


I did,

give you everything. 

Every part of me. 

My Body. 

My Mind.

My Soul. 

And My Heart. 


I don’t regret,

losing it to you.

I regret that I fell for you. 

I regret not kissing you.

I regret my trust in you.  

I regret many things, 

But not you as a whole. 


I believe, 

everything happens for a reason. 

You, 

And I. 

We happened for a reason.

A heart broken, 

A lesson learned. 


I almost, 

told you I loved you. 

That was a mistake. 

You were full of lust. 

I, on the other hand, 

Wouldn’t say no.

Because, well;

I loved you.

Pros: This poem tells a story, and I love that. And the story itself is something I relate to, to a certain degree. It's beautifully written and laid out in a very different, yet interesting way. Normally, I wouldn't like the longer lines being surrounded by mildly shorter ones (due to flow reasons and whatnot), but this poem flows so well, that isn't a problem at all.

Cons: Nothing whatsoever.

Overall: I love this poem, I really, truly do.

Beautiful. In your poems you manage to express strong feelings and thoughts with simple words. And I like the shape of this one.

The truth of it shocks me.
A possible adolescent feeling the tantrums of first love, the scare of it all.
It's great :)
Keep it up Ashley Ree

We can trip over love when lust takes over. I like the poem. The emotion of love allow us to open door close to but a few in a life. I like the reason for the poem. To hold back words to protect yourself. A excellent poem.

So... I'm 18. Which is awesome. Not that it is that big of a landmark, but it's another birthday. I started this account about two months ago, maybe longer, and at that time I said I didn't write that.. more..
