The Best Laid Plans?

At first, we were simply friends,
But now we are much much more

I was hesitant to try,
But your friends had convinced me

So I stew in my own thoughts,
Thinking of just what to do

Thus, I take up pen and pad,
And write this piece just for you

I plan my delivery,
Alas, plans of mice and men

But today, mice and men win!
No longer do they fear loss

And I will hold you near me, long enough to please us both

How sweet, its nice when some poems have a happy ending. Nice job

[Will]

They won't all end like that, but when they do it's fun to write. Thanks for the feedback!

[C.C. Marx]

[Careline]

[Careline]

I really do love this poem, especially the last line.. I just can't get over it!

[Andie]

:')
This is really cute.
You have a talent.

[Will]

Aw thanks! I appreciate it alot, because I've always seen myself as a short story writer than a poet, so that is cool to hear. Thanks! :)

[Andie]

I love writing both, but I think I suck at short stories x)

[Will]

Oh it couldn't be that bad! I'll have to go take a look at your short stories now!

[Andie]

Ugh, I don't care for them!

[Will]

I just read the last love note, and I am in shock right now. Absolutely amazing!

[Andie]

You're over exaggerating! >

[Will]

The Last Love Note was moving, but the Beautiful End is even better! I only have one question: what is the cancer? Is it a particular kind, just cancer in general, or is it a metaphorical cancer?

[Andie]

When I wrote it, I didn't really have a specific kind in mind.

[Will]

Ok I was just curious... I've lost family to cancer, so I was naturally curious... And on another note, Demon Days is very good. Particularly dark, especially considering the inspiration for it.

[Andie]

Oh, I'm sorry for the losses. I myself lost my grandmother to it.
Thank you very much about Demon Days. My mood has gotten better since writing that.

[Will]

Thank you for the condolences. But your mood has obviously gotten better, as you seem very upbeat in all of our exchanges :)

[Andie]

:3 I have my moments thought, but I'm okay.

[Careline]

[Will]
