To All The Boys I've Known Before...

to all the boys i’ve known before...

and those i never met before...

not sure if you were gay? which games you liked to play ?...

 to all the boys i’ve known before...

to all the boys i’ve known before...

so cute and young and wild some more...

you tell your lies then stray... love only for today...

those are the boys i’ve known before...

every boy seems to be wanting to find... a friend for a night, or a lover...

but what is the use ?... to have someone to use ?...

when they all disappear in the end ?... 

to all the boys i’ve known before...

so many but none that i... adore...

the thrill is for a day... then nothing else to say...

to all the boys i’ve known before...

I liked it, spoken from the heart.. So many fish in the sea concept makes men act like their on deadliest catch and go out trying to increase their score. It's hard to find the ones that truly want more, the ones that will forever adore the simplicity of love and life.

[N!LoC]

Thanks keegs... So nice of u to drop by ..... Hey .. I've never liked fishing anyways ... (Giggle giggle)

[Blissful Sin]

I agree with you so much on this poem.... I'm actually REALLY scared to love someone, I would love to give up my heart, body, and mind to another that I love but I'm to scared that they'll leave me and that I cant give up my body to the real person that I love and loves me back. I'm so scared and cautious to be with another that I pledged to myself that I wont give up my body till marriage >< its really scary for me, kind of like a phobia.
I liked the poem!

I sooo understand what u mean ... I was like that (and still am in some ways ) ... Buy honestly when u meet the right person ... You would do things you probably thought you would never do .... And even if that means giving your mind body and soul ... Lol ...

I like this one, and I like to actually read this kind of poetry, because it's pure and it gives me someone else's view on certain aspects. But in a way, of course, this isn't different at all, which kind of strikes you in your mind! Love is endless, limitless and most of all genders do not matter. It takes deep thought sometimes to convince people, and to end the endless taboo it has created over the years, but poems like these give you a little light inside that can finally overcome the darkness we've created over the years. I hope this kinda makes sense, but this poem speaks to me a lot. Of course, it's two sided, it could be boys or girls, right? And that, in a nutshell, is the beauty of love. :-)

[N!LoC]

oh yes ! im glad it spoke to you... and its always great to know that poems i write are relatable... and yeah.. i think i understand what you are trying to say... thanks for the great philosophical comment plainme ... :-)

Np happy to help

I like it, shows how you're looking for a long relationship. But everyone else just wants to play with your feelings for a night and then disappear for a while. Maybe forever. Unless they come back for a bit more fun with your feelings. Good work. I like it.

[N!LoC]

Thanks Kenzi ;-) good guys are so hard to come by ... It's almost nauseating lol

[D.E. Ball]

This piece has a somber, even a bitter tone to it. You're seeking a long-term, committed relationship when the other guys you meet are simply looking for an evening of fun. I feel for you, man.

This is my interpretation. Good work!

[N!LoC]

You got it right on the dot! Lol .. Thanks ball :-)

[D.E. Ball]

You're welcome! ;D
