Favorite Quote:
She wants to die. She wants to disappear, to be remembered no more. She wants so terribly to be forgotten, all her mistakes, all her failures, everything. Her name to be wiped free from all record of existence. Because is it really existing when you’ve got nothing to show for your life?

I love you.
I always will.
Need I explain?
Three words for you,
I. Love. You.

I am so sorry,
I am not always there for you.
Do you miss me when I am away?
I miss you,
I love you.

I love you.
Why do you love me?
I live so far away,
I am not there for you,
Although I wish I could be.
Why do you love me?

I love you.
I would do anything for you.
Do you know how much I wish was there with you?
I would give anything to live near you,
'Stead of on the other side of the continent.
I miss you so much.

I love you.
I wish you were here.
I wish I was there.
I wish we could be together.
I love you.

Last stanza: "I wish you were here. I wish I was there." Switch places. Profit?

Anyways... I enjoyed the simplicity of this poem, which envelopes a much more complex dilemma. I am also in a similar situation, yet the distance is not geographical, but rather temporal.

"...If the Thames that ran beside them...recalled a night where the moon shone as brightly as a shilling on the same boy and girl... and thought to themselves, 'at last, the wheel comes full circle,' they kept their silence."

I like how the last stanza is filled with everything from the earlier stanzas. I do agree that it could be more original, but i think this is fine too!

It's good. However, try to avoid stereotypical ideas and topics. Try to come up with new and creative things, or even a new way of wording the old things. It is also a little repetitive, but I'm not saying it's bad! and don't stop writing!!

This is so beautiful. I hope someday you get to live closer to this person. I know how painful that can be, so i'm sorry. If you wouldn't mind reading my short story, and maybe commenting if you have enough time, it ould mean a lot :) thanks!
