  1. 21. The Promise

    I wrote this when a boy left me. I thought we were meant to be, but he didn't keep his promise.

    I love you.
    Those three words didn't mean a thing.
    I thought we were meant to be,
    But I guess it was just a fling.

  3. 22. He's Gone

    This is about an experience that my best friend went through, and I just wrote about it.

    He's gone,
    Like a shadow when the sun goes down.
    The magic fades when he turns around.

  5. 23. Betrayer

    Something I haven't seen much of, especially in cheating, are poems by the person in the wrong. By no means is this something I'm proud of, but I can't erase it or make it right. All I can do is own up to it.

    it's right there,
    reminding me of what I've done.
    I am the betrayer,

  6. 24. Soundly In Your Bed

    My name is Taeha and I am sixteen. I befriended someone who soon became my best friend. He was the definition of a best friend. He means the world to me. He moved a little over one year of our friendship, and I haven't seen him in close to a year now. We talk here and there but not often. He keeps promising to come visit, but that has not yet come. This poem shows just how I feel about the situation, and I am very proud of it.

    I am lying awake in my nice, warm bed.
    I am not sleeping because you are stuck in my head.
    I try to forget that you were ever here,
    But you made a huge impact in that one short year.

  8. 26. My One-Sided Love

    Grief, sadness, death...old problems I've faced, but today I'm getting past them. The problem I've failed to beat is my one-sided love, the one lost in the waves of my life but is still there to press on my heart wound every time I close my eyes.

    My love to her is a roaring fire.
    She's all I ever did or will desire.
    Without her I am no more,
    'Cause she's all I live for.

  9. 27. The Reason Why

    Hi! I am a thirteen-year-old girl who has secretly been writing poetry since I was in 4th grade. I love poetry with all my heart. I wrote this one today because I was thinking of somebody I miss so much, and all of a sudden the first snow of the year began to gently fall outside. I began to write, and it turned into this poem that I named "The Reason Why." I hope it can relate to everybody out there who is missing someone, especially someone who meant a lot to you. Enjoy and thanks for reading!

    The first snow of the year falls around me.
    I stare out my window. It never fails to astound me

    How each flake is different. None are the same.

    You're welcome. It's really sad when someone dear becomes a stranger in two minutes. It's a nice poem that was greatly expressed.

  10. 28. Your Love Is A Lie

    I am 18 years old, and I have been in a relationship for 4 months now, and it isn't getting any better. It just seems that she just doesn't love me. She is never with me; she is always with her ex. It just makes me so upset when I see her with him. All she does is lie and cheat, and I keep going back because the feelings take over, so I write poems to ease my sadness.

  15. 33. Tears No More

    Being rejected by someone you like is hard to go through. That is what inspired me to write this. After basically being rejected by this guy I was crushing on, I had all these thoughts going through my head, and I just started writing. This is how it turned out. Please feel free to leave comments.

  16. 34. A Smile Conceals The Tears Inside

    This is just a short poem about having my heart and emotions played with by a guy I thought was my best friend. I don't really like to talk about it because I feel stupid, used, and embarrassed when I do, but if this poem will help someone out there going through the same experience as me feel better and less alone, then it's worth it.

    Every day is the same old thing.
    Seeing you with her makes my heart sting.
    The way your eyes look at her with desire,
    I feel as though my whole world is on fire.

    This poem is about this guy I never went out with, but we talked about it. He was three years older than me, and we were always together and always kissing and everything; he was perfect. Until I found out he had another girl the whole time!

    Hey there, I am a teenage girl. I love writing poetry but didn't start until that one summer. The summer a guy I loved broke my heart. Now most of my poetry is sad, and it is because most of my life is sad. The weirdest thing is I act happy, but I am crying on the inside. No one ever notices though...
