i've loved deeper than anyone could ever know
i've felt more than the average jane
i've gone through a lot,
i've cried lots of tears
but it's all made me the girl
that i am today
and i'm never going to change
for anyone, for anything
for any amount
for any number
for any name
i'll never change
i'll always be the girl
beneath that poplar tree
singing to herself
some crazy melody
and if you don't like it,
then honey you can leave
i'll always be this soft
i'll always be this strong
i'll always be the girl
you never had the strength to love...

so leave.
goodbye.
done.
finished.

i hope you never have to cry
for me the way that i
have cried for you

    *wipes away the tears* Don't cry sweet thing. I am so used to hearing all your happy poems that this one really struck me hard. You're right....never change who you are....you are perfect just the way you are.

    Ps. That is one lucky poplar tree.

  • jessie,

    lately the number of sad poems compared to joyous poems has increased. i'm sorry. i don't know what you're going through, but of course you know you can always pm me or get me on aim (when i'm on) if you ever feel like painting the town rainbow. ;)

    but as for this poem, once again you leave me speechless. The clarity of your writing is a gift from above. to be cliche, nailz nailed it on the head when he said that's a lucky poplar tree. if the hardships you've endured made you the girl you are today, then i am sorry for them, but greatful at the same time... for you are truly a very VERY special person that i wouldn't have any other way.

    i been alone
    all the years
    so many ways to count the tears
    i never change
    i never will
    i'm so afraid the way i feel
    CHORUS:
    days when the rain and the sun are gone
    black as night
    agony's torn at my heart too long

    so afraid
    slip and fall and i die
    i been alone
    always down
    no one cared to stay around
    i never change
    i never will
    i'm so afraid the way i feel
    (repeat chorus)


    I have successfully copied and pasted something. Kat,are you checking this out. Thanks again.

    I thought of this song after reading your poem.
    Fleetwood Mac.
    I was alone
    I took a ride
    I didn't know
    What I would
    Find there.
