this poem has to do with falling in love
"Won't Go Away"

That very day that I saw you in my American Government class,
I had a weird tingling feeling inside of me that I knew was going to last.

I wasn’t exactly sure where these feelings came from or what they meant,
But I knew all in time everything would work out just fine.

As time went by we began talking on the phone.
And for once I finally had more to say then just hello.

At that point and time I realized there was something different about you.
But I still didn’t seem to have a clue.
What was so different about you?

Well the summer came and past and we didn’t seem to last.
I didn’t know what to do because I thought for sure I had fallen for you.

Sophomore year came and I found someone new.
He took my heart away and broke it in two.

At that point I really had no clue what to do.
For many months I cried myself to sleep in hopes
That he would come back to me.

But through it all you came back to me,
And helped me out with my so-called tragedy.
I don’t know why you did it.
But I thank you, every last minute.

As the school year of 2002 had come to an end,
We had seemed to be back together again.
It lasted for about three months.
Until I said all right that’s enough!

This time I thought we were done for sure,
But I was hoping in the end that we could
Still remain friends.

It seemed impossible at first because my
Friend’s didn’t want me to see you,
They just wanted me to leave you.

I didn’t know what to do I thought
May be that they were right it was the best for you.

What did I want you ask?
I do not know relationships come and they go.
But this time things seemed to be different,
For once I felt absolutely horrible for ending it.

I did still have feelings for you,
That is true but what was I to do?
I couldn’t keep going back to you.

So I let it be for a while,
I let time take its trial.

Junior year came along,
I met some new guys
But we didn’t seem to get along.

Feelings for you kept coming back.
I tried to erase them and tell myself,
What has happened has happened and It’s in the past and it’s not coming back.
But that didn’t last.
I told my friends I was over you but I knew that it wasn’t true.

We started hanging out again.
And everything seemed so right
But we still had more than one obstacle to fight.

First of all there was your friends.
Who hated me for what I kept doing to you
And in all reality they really had every intention to.

Then there were my feelings that I kept running away from,
I knew there was something there,
But I was just to scared and being to dumb,
To realize that you were the one.

The 21st of November came,
You told me you loved me,
And I had no clue what to do.

I knew deep down I shared the same feelings for you,
But what was I to do?
I was so confused.

I sat in my room for a while thinking of what I should do,
And then I knew right then and there what had to be done.

I had been holding on to certain feelings for so long
It was time to say so long.
I still loved this person, indeed I did
But I knew nothing was going to happen so I had to let it come to an end.

I don’t know what the future is going to bring.
But I want to let you know one thing,
I now know what that tingling feeling meant
I never before believed in love at first sight but I do tonight.
I love you mike.
