    I have, tons of beautiful poetry.

    You're gone, I'm all alone
    From the start, we hit it off
    Mowing lawn, I wrote in stone:
    I hope your dick falls off

          :* yes, please. I want duck bubbles in a puddle! Oh, I only declared my love because I was positive it was you! You are more recognizable than you think! Ha. From this haiku alone and username, I'd say: You! I've missed you. :)

    I always write poetry. If I get inspired by something, I just write.

    When I was with you the moon was so bright
    The wind through the trees was a beautiful sight
    Now you are gone with no hint of return
    I care not for the world, I'd watch it all burn
    Between Summer and Winter I stand on the line
    Can I crawl back or is darkness all mine?
    Waiting a while with my tears almost dry
    I smile deranged and let out a loud cry
    I cannot imagine these feelings will end
    There's no point its over, I will never mend.

    Damn.. I need to go watch a boxing match to get my masculinity back.

    Adele did it, and she turned out pretty successful for it! Make them into songs and your set!

    Seriously though, we all have to find one way or other to vent the pain and frustration when we are heart broken, poetry is much better than my standard go to when I am hurt. I just get shit faced drunk for a week or two and then pretend it never happened.

    It's a good way to channel your emotions.

    Roses are red,
    Violets are blue,
    Get in my bed,
    'cause if you don't I'll send you more bad poetry... schmue

      You should've said
      "Get in my bed,
      cause if you don't, I'll kill you."

      :)

        Huh, that's a nice offer, ma'am. But my mom wouldn't approve me getting in some internet lady's bedroom.

        So... is it okay if I don't get in your bed? Without you killing me? That'd be great. :D

    Yeah, when I was about 16. It was so embarrassing, I had to set fire to it in case anyone ever found it.

          Why does my heart long?
          For the one who is all but gone?
          Why did she have to leave?
          And break my heart so that i greave?

          Its been 9 months since that day,
          When my true love went away
          I do not know why i love her still, 
          Because She was the one who was real

          My friends say get over it its done,
          But they have not yet loved someone
          Oh i would give anything to
          Hear her say i love you

          But ill never hear the words i want
          Because she has moved on
          And Casey if i ever hear your voice
          Ill hold your love once more without a choice

              Thats what i get for loving you
              Said you'd always bee true
              Thats what i get for trusting you
              It should have been youu

              I dont know, what happened then
              I just know, i woulda stayed till the end
              I shoulda never had faith, that we would last
              But you broke my heart, like shattered glass
