Author's Note: This poem was dated back 3/24/07 apparently the same day of my cousin's wedding. It's a narrative poem I wrote.
Once there was a girl,
who fell for a boy,
who smiled sweetly.
Once that girl followed her heart,
and smiled back at the smiling boy.
So many days the boy and girl would cross paths
and beamed at each other so,
when they passed each other
when they said "hello."
Once the girl met the boy.
She choked up, speechless.
And the boy he just smiled.
The girl was so mortified.
Then one day the boy stopped liking her,
let alone stopped smiling.
She missed the boy, but
he had already moved on.
She cried days on end
make-up smears, tissues covered everywhere.
And every time she would see him,
she would fall for him like before.
The boy who once smiled turned into blank, heartless stares.
She was heartbroken.
Days had gone by and the girl grew with alertness and shyness.
And when her feelings would resurface she would say:
'
'"Today might not be as good as I expect it,
but tomorrow I can start over.
Today might have given me sorrow,
but there will be joy and no somber morrows.
Though I have tears today,
tomorrow will be a better day.
Though he may have moved on,
surely I've moved on before he stopped.
So I'm through, he's gone, it's finished.'"
The girl waits and seeks her true love when she is ready.
As for the boy,
he will never know what he missed not being with the girl.
