The snow was falling,
My phone was ringing,
My mama was calling me.
She said you had been thinking of us,
I got in my truck and I had to cuss,
Because you left me alone last Spring,
In the park by the swings,
Now I'm not sure why,
I'm laughing when all I want to do is cry-
Just to see your face,
It would mess up everything.
I've been doing so good,
Alone with my friends,
I only get sad when the day ends,
I'm not the same girl,
I'm someone else,
But even you know,
I need that for myself.
I hadn't thought about you in so long,
Now everything I have accomplished is gone.
You've ruined me for good,
And it's all my fault,
I should say "Go to Hell",
But I'd rather not,
So I'll let you use me,
And we'll see what it brings,
But I'm pretty sure I'll once again,
Be alone by the swings next spring... [comments] => 3 [counter] => 197 [topic] => 31 [informant] => pinkunicornoctober [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => StoryPoetry )

Nice stuff. You write 'I should say Go to Hell but I'd rather not', meaning you know you shouldn't see him again but you cannot help yourself, despite knowing the likely outcome. Anyway, you wouldn't say 'Go to Hell' to anyone would you?!! You too nice!!
Take care, Chris.

I love the rhythm of your poem. Very impressive.
