Array ( [sid] => 47259 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Devoted Friend [time] => 2004-05-12 21:37:33 [hometext] => This poem is about me and how I am afraid of love...I think everything is my fault and I have no reason to, but I do... I try to kick out everyone who falls in love with me...and that seems to happen a lot.... o well [bodytext] => "Devoted Friend"

I’m beating myself up
Trying hard to kick you out
I don’t want to be more than friends
But I don’t want to see your life come to an end
I’m there whenever you need me
I’m gone when you aren’t in the mood to hear me
I don’t want to be that girl
That puts away something all together
Puts you away
I’m not the happiest person
doesn’t mean I can’t pretend to be
To make others happy
My life isn’t mistaken
But misunderstood
If I had to do something drastic
I don’t think I could
But if I was mad enough
Maybe I would
Do not try and tell me
That its not my fault
don’t try and sound devoted
If its something you are not
don’t try and mislead don’t try and detangle
Because how it goes it goes
don’t try and prolong our relationship
If it wasn’t meant to be
If you do
I don’t think that I could be free

"Devoted Friend"

I’m beating myself up
Trying hard to kick you out
I don’t want to be more than friends
But I don’t want to see your life come to an end
I’m there whenever you need me
I’m gone when you aren’t in the mood to hear me
I don’t want to be that girl
That puts away something all together
Puts you away
I’m not the happiest person
doesn’t mean I can’t pretend to be
To make others happy
My life isn’t mistaken
But misunderstood
If I had to do something drastic
I don’t think I could
But if I was mad enough
Maybe I would
Do not try and tell me
That its not my fault
don’t try and sound devoted
If its something you are not
don’t try and mislead don’t try and detangle
Because how it goes it goes
don’t try and prolong our relationship
If it wasn’t meant to be
If you do
I don’t think that I could be free

Hmmmm . . . interesting. Not bad, not bad at all. Rather nicely written, in fact. The line below rang really true . . .

"I’m not the happiest person
doesn’t mean I can’t pretend to be
To make others happy
My life isn’t mistaken
But misunderstood"

Well done.

I’m there whenever you need me
I’m gone when you aren’t in the mood to hear me -- reminds me of my "play the role" I really know this feeling. we relate on much in life and I hope you try to find a little good in everything like I try... A+++

It's often easy to write it but its another thing to say it. I'm sure many pep can't relate to this one. It's tough job sometimes just being friends with the opposite sex. Good write.
