Why

By Brittany

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Dearest friend of mine,how could my heart have been so blind?How could I have fallen so hardand so easily fallen apart?I loved him so dearly.I gave my love so freely.So how could he lead me awayand not bother to stay?He made me feel wanted.Now my heart is haunted.He told me it would always last.Now he says it is in the past.What has happened to that love?It was tossed out with a shove.Why was I so naive?He simply told me to leave.Dearest friend of mine...how could my heart have been so blind?How could he have gone to fly,and leave me wondering why?I didn't even know that I had written this poem until a couple of days ago when I was rummaging through some old stuff. Surprise, surprise!This poem is about teenage love. Teenagers change their feelings for one anther so freely that it leaves others kind of wondering why. That is exactly what happened to me. I only write about true experiences. Written October 18th, 2001 © on Oct 18 2001 10:04 AM PST   18 • 0 • 8
