She Loves Everybody

I was inspired by all the men that have been in my life.

this is to all the boys
that were in my life
that left.

this is to the boy
that didn't give me enough time
this is to the boy
who used me
this is to the boy
who wouldn't let me in
this is to the boy
i tried way to hard to get
this is to the boy
who loves jack's mannequin
this is to the boy
who was to young
this is to the boy
who i wanted to be his mrs.
this is to the boy
who fell for me way to fast
this is to the boy
who was two quiet
this is to the boy
i didn't even care about
this is to the boy
that i used
this is to the boy
who made me the maddest
this is to the boy
who was my secret
this is to the boy
who cheated on me
this is to the boy
i cheated on
this is to the boy
who was my first
this is to the boy
who i loved

this is to the boys
who made my life
miserable
wonderful
complicated
exciting

It might seem
that you are insignificant
but I remember every single one
every single one that hurt
every single one that smiled
every single one

you helped
shape me
to be the person I am
so even if you are no longer
in my life
thank you
for the memories

I really enjoyed this because it feels and seems so true. One thing i noticed and i don't mean to be pick is that you used the wrong form of to in one of your stanzas:
"this is to the boy
who was two quiet"
it should be too, but i'm sure you knew that, if you reread it you probably would have seen it :)
Overall, fabulous job here.

i like your insight to life and relationships, so many people get hung up on the past and it makes them miserable, takes someone special to point out that all these experiances good or bad in some way make our lives better and more lucid.

This was a different write, a way of thanking all of them for giving you the experiences that makes you... you. It also shows how we treat each other sometimes we are used and sometimes we use I like the complete picture you paint here. Nice writing.

WOW!!! i love this!
I can totally relate...each person who has come into my life has shaped me in some way to be the person i am today. I love how you mention that they might seem insgnificant, but to you, they are not.
