True Story

The first time I met her,

I smiled an asked,

"Do I get a hug?"

She said, "Well, ya"

In the middle of the hug

she gasped, "You're choking me!"

I pulled back an laughed,

"I'm sorry"

 

Then later she introduced me to my crush

Saying, "Helen, this is Adam.

Adam, this is Helen.

Ok now you can like hug or shake hands

or whatever it is you guys do."

Then pulled our hands together,

So of course we shook hands!

 

As I went through the difficulty of

my family's troubles,

she was always there to listen

an give advice

She was always ready for a hug

Anytime I needed one

 

Now We've fought once to often

"You need to find a new best friend"

A stab in the heart that will never fully heal

I should have been there for her

Best Friends Forever we said

What happened? Where was I?

What will I do without her there with me?

 

Somehow, someday, I might survive

but I just have one last thing to say,

"Annie, I'll love you forever"

Hey, is this like. Ummm, message me, kay? Sorry for your loss. I truly am. I'm sure it didn't happen without you giving an effort to stop this. :) Nice write.

This is so true, I almost don't even want to comment! It brings back a lot of my past friendships. What I like about this poem is that it allows the reader's emotion to bleed through, rather than just the poet's. Nice write :)

hey, you dont know what to call it? maybe just call it A True Story :D I liked this, a lot. The feeling of loss can be really strong when it's someone you've loved for years. The thought of losing someone like your best friend can be scary, because you've shared so much of your emotions with them, and they probably know all of your secrets, so there's no telling what that person will do with them. That's not really where you're going with this, I'm just rambling on, but I really appreciated this write :) You have alent and I'm glad to see you've decided to try your hand aat poetry,. RR me anytime, and you'll be sure to get a review from me :)(
