I Won't Give Up

That smile
Your voice
That laugh that makes me turn my head

The patience
The compassion
The very thing I see

It keeps me going
Hoping
That one day you will see
I won't ever give up

Ever tear
Every fight
Is well worth it
It shows
Just how much I truly care

You ignore me 
I try
Again, you ignore me
I try harder
Yet still
You ignore me

Choosing to block me out
Forgetting how you told me
To never 
Give up

Therefore I won't 
Ever
Give up
On our friendship
Because
In all honesty
Your are my best friend
Forever
I will always care
Even if you walk away
Without turning around

This time when you say goodbye
I won't say it back
Because I will
Never give up

On the one
That saved me
Saved my life
Time and time again
Saved me from throwing it all away
Saved me from ending it all

I wish you could see
Without the constant fight 
We are always fighting
Even if I shouldn't
I will
Tell you time and time
Again
I love you more
Than I could express

I can't live without you
I am terrified
Of living
Without you

I can't imagine 
Waking up
Not only missing you
But never
Seeing you 
Again

For every guy
I turn down
I think of you
And how
They don't 
Even compare

If I could
I would have
Given up
A long time ago
I know you will 
Never love me
Again
I just can't

For once
I am the one trying to save you
From being
Someone
You're not.

I 100% agree with Willow! They way you wrote about the feeling is amazing. That is exactly how it feels when you're with someone then they turn on you...It's awful. But you just have to keep on hoping that someday, somehow it will work out(: great job!

[Angelica]

Thank you!!! And yes I hope it will, it does feel awful

I liked your poem. The short lines really gave the poem the feeling it needed. I really liked how even though your lines were short and choppy, the poem still flowed quite well!

Good Job!

[Angelica]

Thank you! That is the feeling that I was trying to accomplish with the poem.

You reveal clearly the feelings you experience to others, a powers that never fails to be undervalued! I like this, and I think where it is strongest is in it's clarity of thought. However, I think the form you have chosen slightly interrupts the flow of the stanzas, that's just my opinion though Angelica and I still think this is wonderful. :)

Thank you so much!!! And I will try to go back and just read through it and see if I can fix that.
