(Some of my poetry, as cheesy as it sounded when I wrote it back then, can be found by searching my name on Poetry.com. The search brings up 3 results under my name, but they are all me. Back then, the website was a really nice and popular poetry site, but it has since become a rather generic site, maybe due to its merge with Lulu. I decided to repost some of my poems here.)

the wrong reasons
2007

I wanted to believe you, I wanted you to lie
I wanted you to tell me
How much you wanted me in your life.

I wanted to run, I wanted to leave
I wanted to prove that
You would one day miss me.

I wanted you to stay, To hold you in my arms
To tell you that I love you
And never say goodbye.

Even though I miss you, Even though I cry
I still hold you so near me
Even when I close my eyes.

I wanted you for all the wrong reasons
But you left for all the right
And one day I will stop crying
But not until my dreams stop holding you tight.
