Dreams have became my reality,
I have lost all my mentality.
I see you two,
And then I see us boo.
I gave you my heart,
But then you tore it apart.
I show you my smile, it's so fake.
But, it was always yours to take.
I thought you'd be mine forever.
And we'd always be together.
Whatever happened to the glow you said you saw upon my face?
Look at me, you've turned me into a mental case.
Do you see how much this is killing me?
Wondering, if this is all we'll ever be.
You, the words I script.
And, me, the dirt you kick.

The author's comments:
I experience my first love and got my heart broken, after that I poured myself into writing. This is one of my favorite pieces that I wrote during that experience. But, there are more to come.

I also would have to disagree with the use of the word "boo", but other than that its great! I really like it and it is easy to relate to for sure.

Thanks for the honesty. (: & I know. I just kind of tossed 'boo' in there to rhyme with too. I was trying to maintain the same rhyme scheme through out the poem.

i love this poem because so many can relate! i would avoid using the word "boo". and also the syllables are awkward in some places.
