Press space or next button for next page here have another poem while I work on getting it into scratch project: Chocolate Eyes. I’ve a story to tell About my life From then to now From now to then But I must warn you, What used to be happy turns to sad What was once excitement Turned to dread. Proceed with caution If you will This sad heartbreak May break a soul. It was first grade for me, And I don’t remember it, But I don’t need to be able to see. In order to feel it instead. That boy who has been by my side And I had no idea what was coming, When I first saw his deep chocolate eyes… The years flew by, But time after time, We were in the same class, And there he was at my side. One of those years, Don’t know which, I sent his mom some letters That she’s kept ever since. One’s quite embarrassing, In more than one way, But those dark chocolate eyes, Well, they just seemed so loving. Then came the year of third grade, When I packed up my things And moved away. Didn’t move schools until the next year, But the boy and I? Well, we didn’t have phones. So we used our mothers’ And stayed in touch Both of us committed, To stay best friends Throughout middle school, Up until now, That boy and I? Well, as of a year ago we were still friends And I still loved seeing those chocolate eyes. Those deep chocolate eyes, They hold so much. It’s not so much their color, As it is their holder. I could go on and on about him, you see. He’s kind and funny, He’s sweet and brave. He goes out of his way to help others all day. He’s inspiring and clever He’s devoted and fair. He’s so genuine and loyal, And so much more. He’s amazing, that boy. From birthday parties And class pet tarantulas, To the embarrassing note, And giant playground webs, That could be anything He hasn’t forgotten me He’s stayed by my side Always prepared to be there to fight He cares for his sisters He cares for his mom He’d care for a stranger, In a faraway town. But now I fear I’ve waited too long To covfess to him my love It’s too late we’ve grown apart In denial–but now I know. Our texts dwindled into nothing I want him back Even if just as a friend I miss him My heart aches for just one more time Just one hug Just one goodbye. He’s still kind But this friendship may have ended I wish, oh I wish, To turn back the clock. Why must the world be so cruel? Fate has broken my heart time after time But this time is different. He’s not here to help me through. It’s not just broken It’s been torn apart, Torn out of my chest Broken and bruised Then shoved back in For me to try to heal But when the bandage is gone I fear the dark. I have hands to hold But it’s not the same. Will they understand about the boy? Or just laugh it off Say, “just give it time!” It may heal but this will leave a scar Lasting long while Forever more No it’s not his fault He’s still loving and kind But time has torn us apart. Goodbye, my friend. Goodbye Tyson.
I wrote all these poems. Enjoy!
