BTW i cant do love or friendship poems, for reason look below im too lazy to retype it.

called "Sacrifice" in my profile, updated a day ago, but originally written as a letter, the version here goes into more of the story behind the lovers, though the author covers up the truth of what 'world' he's trying to keep the other from, it's not entirely difficult to figure out
by Д βєąµ†ιƒµℓ £ιэ

Listen to me, Benjamin;
I’ve been around a little longer than you,
I know a bit more about this world we live in.

You’re a nice guy,
and nice guys finish last.
Promise me, Ben,
you’ll never run from your past.

Trust no one.
Don’t be afraid to face this world alone.
I know it seems so much harder on your own,
but I also know you.
Just trust the voice within,
and it will get you through.

I’ve made so many mistakes.
I know that it’s too late for me to change,
but I’d sacrifice everything
to ensure you stay the same.

You’ll have to go on, all on your own;
and then you will know all the pain that I’ve shown.
I wish I could be there always by your side.
I know all that you want to do is hide.
I wish I could let you, I wish I could protect you,
I selfishly want to covet you,
but I know I won't always be here;
and you’ll have to go on without me, without fear.
Help yourself, I’d do it myself
even though it breaks my heart
to think you always loved somebody else.

When I say “I love you,”
it’s not because I want you
(though you know I do);
and it’s not because I know I can’t have you
(you know it’s true).

See, it’s not even about me.
It’s you, it’s always you.
Everything I’ve done has been because
I know that you’re the one.
I’ve been molding you to be the perfection that I see,
I don’t want you to be another reflection of me.
I’ve seen you strong, I’ve seen you weak;
you said we were wrong, I have to agree.
I’ve seen your best, I’ve seen your worst;
You were a b----, I was a jerk.

But all barricades aside, nothing can change how I feel,
nothing you say can make us less real,
because it’s there between us, you can’t deny
how alive we become coming inside…
I never loved anything so much not to lie,
I never loved anyone enough to fight and to die;
then I get a glimpse of your life, and you gave me back mine!

The word “love” doesn’t touch what I feel for you.
Doesn’t even come close.
I wish we could be together forever,
but now I can only hope.
I’m thankful just to have known
a love to move mountains, change the world,
I know you can make it, get through, you’re the one.
I pray upon my dying day
you look at me like your champion.

I’d sacrifice everything
to ensure you stay the same.

I know it’s tough to carry all that pain,
but if you give up,
my sacrifice will have been in vain.

Sincerely,
Matthew James Freeman c. 1989

To Dear Simon,

You muck up in class,
And don't do the work,
You break all the rules,
And act like a jerk.

Your proud of detentions,
You pretend not to care.
Is it a plea for attention?
Do you do it for a dare?

You've had a messed up life
With your Dad leaving before
But can't you try,
Try and be something more?

Believe it or not,
There is more to life,
Than smoking or drinking
and getting into strife.

There are more important things
Than human opinions.
You don't need acceptance
From the cool or their minions

Real friends like me
Are always here for you
To share the good times
And to hold you when you're blue.

I can't do much more,
Than love you and listen.
But I do want to help,
If you care for my opinion.

I want you to be happy,
not broken inside.
I want you to have a life,
as lovely as mine.

My secret is God,
And his love for me.
I'm not forcing this on you
but can't you see,?

I just want to help,
You could be so great
Don't live a life
That you'll forever hate.

With Love, from a friend that cares.

~this is oldish i wrote it about a month ago, but its a letter so yeah thought i'd enter it hope you like it~

hehe i remember that poem^. gr8 work u guys keep it up!

You once said to me
- written Feb 26/06
by J. Lau

Some time not long ago,
You once said to me...
"If things were not the way they are...
If we were together last July,
We may have turned out just the same."

I simply kept my thoughts to myself,
Cause I beg to differ.
Things would have been a lot different,
If we were together last July...

I would have never broke your heart,
I would have never let you cry.
I would have treasured you so,
Till the day you part.
Not because of health or any other cause,
But I will never be able to bare,
The thought of leaving you the sorrows to grief alone.

Life has never been so close to memories before,
Feelings that were burried,
And thoughts that have been forgotten,
Were felt and remembered once more.
Eyes that were dried are now filled with tears,
A heart that was lost is filled with emotions again.

Some time not long ago,
You told me about your thoughts...
"That we may be together one day...
And you really can see it happen,
Some years down the road."

I told you that I'd be really happy,
If that day ever comes.
I promised that if you're not married in two years less a month,
There will be no question about us.

How I wish that things will change,
And let history rewrite the past.
How I wish that time will fly,
And let it fade away all your sorrows in the past.
How I wish the future will offer new hope and fate,
So I pray that we will be together one day.

Some time shortly after,
You wrote to me...
"That you need some time alone,
Not to reply and not to call.
Take care of myself and him for you,
If I treasure this friendship between you and I."

You retreated back,
And shut me out.
My heart sunk like a rock,
Desperate and lost.
Not that I lost faith in your feelings or your thoughts,
But helpless that I cannot be there by your side,
When you needed the comfort and support.

There's nothing I can or should do anymore,
But to pray that you recover soon one day.
Watching the painful seconds past each day,
I can only respect your wish and patiently wait.
All I ever want is the best for you,
With or without me matters no more.
One thing I will say for sure,
Is that not only have my feelings for you never changed,
But it grew a lot stronger with each passing day.

nice work. come on only 3 entrys?!?!?!? COME ON!!!! so like 14 left:D

13 left.

OMGOSH this contest ends on my birthday :D I made a poem like a letter I will post it.

~A letter for a stranger~

Dear stranger,
This is a letter for a stranger
I have met him long long ago,
I know nothing of him
But he knows all about me.
I never once lied
But for some reason
He always made me cry.

This letter is not out of hate
Not even out of fright
I am sure it was fate
That wanted me to drive
You out of my sight.
This letter is a plea
To get out of my life
I want to move on
But I am kept in your
Dreary crate.

A letter to a stranger
I am sorry to say
Let me be free
And step out of your misery.
Its time to move on
Just leave me alone
Delete me from your mind
So I can go on.
Let me live my life
Let me smile once more
This is a plea
For you to leave me be.

Yours truly,
A girl who wants to move on.

this was first written a few months ago... but it has been edited very resently (as in today). If it is too old then just let me know and i'll either remove it or write a new one.

Dear Father

For as long as I can remember,
You have always been there,
Not as a father figure,
A man who would always care,

But as a fearful overload
Causing pain to those around,
And we could never told a soul
Could never make a sound.

You caused so many problems,
Hurt us in so many ways.
Yet no one ever noticed
They all ignored our pleas

I used to think it normal,
To be beaten every day,
I used to think I was strange
To want you to be kept at bay

Thought that it happened to everyone,
That all fathers acted like you,
Beat their family for all mistakes,
Bruise them black and blue,

All those cries for help,
Fell upon deaf ears.
So here we remained
With you for all those years

And even now that you've left us,
Now you're far away,
The fear still remains
At the end of every day

The fear your voice would create,
The sound that would cause an icy chill,
Called us over to you
So you could get your thrill

You would enjoy to hit and beat us,
Your eyes lit up as you caused the pain,
Wouldn't stop until you'd had your fill
Of whatever it was you had to gain.

To lash out at your children,
To hit and beat your wife.
Does it not make you wonder
Just what you did wrong in life?

You may no longer live here,
But that has not destroyed the fear,
You are still here in memory,
And in many a persons tear,

You are forever in the shadows,
Though you we will never find,
For although I know you are far away,
You're forever in my mind.

Now you have left us
There's one thing I still need to know,
Why did you do this to us?
What did you gain by making us feel so low?

I will never forget what you did,
All those years of woe,
That made a man who should have been my father,
Become my all time foe.

yours sincerely,
your son

This Letter

I wrote this letter just for you,
It sounds pretentious,
But it's true,
I wrote this letter just for you,
Thats why its vulgar,
Thats why it's blue.
And I say thankyou
Thankyou

I wrote this letter just for mom,
For all the mommy things she's done,
For all the times she showed me wrong,
For all the times she sang gods song,
And I say thankyou mom

I read a book about uncle Tom,
Where whitey bastard made a bomb,
Those motherfuckers got it wrong,
And I ask who is Uncle Tom?
Who is Uncle Tom?

I read a book about the self,
Said i should get expensive help,
Clear my head,
Create some wealth,
Put my narossis on a shelf,
But I don't care for myself,
I don't care

I wrote this letter just for you,
I'm so pretentious,
Yes it's true,
I wrote this letter for all of you,
Now that im through

*This is basically a suicide note/letter*

4 days/9 poems!

Dear Heart! July16th, 2006

Dear Heart,

Your laying here in the shadows of my body!
Lifeless, barely functioning, barely there!
I didn't mean to let him get this close,
Falling to fast is my weakest point!

Please forgive me dear heart, don't let
This come in between us, I need you!
He came in with the wind, and his departure
Was just as sudden as just as quick!

I swear heart, it wasn't supposed to end up like this
We were meant to be together, maybe he just
Couldn't see all that I could see!
But now He's gone and your not helping things either!

Im tired of thinking of his face, thinking that
Maybe if I had tried a little harder he would
Still be here with us, I need to you to help
Me through this, to keep me alive if only for Today

Dear Heart,

I've given up, I don't remember what the last straw
Was but I can't take this anymore, He was my
EVERYTHING! NOw hes gone, and you are fleeting!
No longer can I hang on to what will never be there

Thinking about what used to be kills me even more
Barely able to function, just trying to live
One more day, one more minute, one more hour!
Alas I have failed you!

Dear Heart,

We ran a good race, but in the end we lost!
Everything will be alright!
Heartache was too much to handle!
But its okay! Everything is going to be fine!

8 poems left! yay

Dear Father,

Every word you spill is pain
Every love you gave was fake
I always took the blame
For the things that you Take

Dear Mother,

Dipping in other places
Forgetting you were a mother
YOu left without any traces
or photos you had a daughter

Dear Brother,

I hope you die in vain
Raping girls like me
Causing all that evil pain
I'll watch you die gradually

Dear Docter,

I see lost hope in your eyes
As you watch my heart go down
But do not expect me to cry
For tears are a mere sound

There's no one to cry for
No dream i couldn't reach
There really isn't much more
Life lessons I can teach

Dear Death,

Go on and spread my souls
Tell me I'm going to be dead
Cause falling into death's hole
Is nothing like living dread
