A Foolish Love

A young girl falls in love with a jerk...some true and some dramatized...particularly the last last line

 

How come...?

 

 

You make my heart beat a million times per second

 

And force me to blush as red as a sunset

 

 

And yet...?

 

 

You pull me away without realizing it

 

You refuse to be my friend, or even be seen with me

 

 

Why are you doing this...?

 

 

Your friends will laugh

 

They will not understand my feelings

 

 

Are you afraid...?

 

 

You are ashamed of me

 

I am a female, you are a male

 

 

But are we really that different...?

 

 

I came to see you when you were lonely

 

You ignored me and kept on staring at the ceiling

 

 

Why am I so nervous..?

 

 

I told you I brought some food and stuff to do

 

You turned your head to me and said 'Whatever'

 

 

Whatever...?

 

 

Infuriated and embarrassed, I ran out the door

 

Feeling foolish, I was forced to conceal my feelings

 

 

How could I be so stupid as to fall in love with a jerk...?

 

 

I ran to the sea, and I wanted to jump

 

To live there forever, never come back

 

 

Who is there...?

 

 

But then, I saw you

 

Another male, looking as smirky as you do

 

 

Why are you here...?

 

 

I expected him to walk away from me

 

Instead, he asked me 'What's wrong?'

 

 

Why can't I answer...?

 

 

Seeing my anxiety, he picked up a fishing rod

 

and tossed it to me

 

 

Why do I feel warm...?

 

 

We fished for two hours

 

In the never ending sea

 

 

How come...?

 

 

No longer depressed, I have made a lifelong friend

And possibly met true love

The ignoring boy is true, and so is the ending about fishing and the next guy. the friendship yes, but true love, either not yet or no. We're just friends. And yes, the ignoring guy did have ignoring friends...(grits teeth)...gotta get over him!!! LOL

awwe, I loved it!! I am curious to know which part is true??? sounds like a mini movie.. imagery was right on... greatness!! The only thing is the light pink is kind of hard to read.. t

I really like this poem...It reflects real love and that most love is rejected. The boy in the story, the one she fell in love with, doesn't realize she even likes him. Or maybe he does...he just doesn't want his friends to know.
