When We Met

You know I always thought

You and I were meant for each other..

Because we are two different people

But we feel the same emotions

I have been there for you since day one

I remember it like it was yesterday

When we met

We were in class

And I noticed the day before you were absent

You came and stood next to me

I decided to ask you where were you

And you said you had to take care of a few things at home

I turned and looked into your eyes and asked

“Is everything okay?”

Your face looked sad and you replied “Yes”

But I knew everything wasn’t

I just left it alone

Later in the day

You come up to me while I was alone and asked me

“Hey, can I get your number”

I smiled at you and said “yes”

I wrote my number on a piece of paper

And while walking out the door

I called his name and handed the paper to him

He grabbed the paper and smiled at me

When I got home, I was laying on my bed

I heard my phone ringing

It read a number I did not know

I answered and it was him…

Instantly he already knew how to make me laugh

From that day on we became closer

We were friends that liked each other

I remember the day you asked me to be your girlfriend

It was New Year’s Eve

And you were out partying with your friends

I told you earlier that day to be careful

Later that night it was ten minutes before midnight

You call me and tell me that you are heading home

I thought he would be out later then that and I told him so

He told me with a soft voice that he wanted to go home because of me

He didn’t want to worry me anymore

It was one minute to midnight

And with his charming voice he said

“I have to ask you something….”

I was quiet and whispered “what?”

“Will you be my girlfriend?”…

I was quiet… I didn’t say a word

He just knew what my answer was..

That whole night my eyes didn’t close once

I was so happy to finally be with him but

To end a beautiful write into a sad one

The next day he broke my heart…

But he never knew, he still doesn’t..

He asked me “will you wait?”

And I told him I would..

To this day, I still find myself waiting..

But I don’t think I am waiting for him…….

This poem is so nice, and it flows so well..
I just wanted to keep reading and reading. I think you wrote this poem really well, with so much emotions and the story is very sad but i really like it. I hope this really didn't happen, as it's a really sad ending...
But it's beautifully written. ^^

I'm rally impressed and touched by this poem. ^^ Keep it up.

Beautifully tragic. You have perfectly summed up what it mens to be alive: to love and live the best you can, and to hold on even if you don't know for what or why. Live in the moment and cherish it, but don't let your life depend on it. I hope your waiting pays off.

Well written. This is so sad, it' sounds like he played with your feelings. I am sure someone will happen into your life who will love you and appreciate for who you really are, and not to hurt you in such a way as he has. Thank you for sharing your story/poem. Debileah
