I know that fantasies are merely dreams. But when I see you take me by the hand and gaze into my eyes, I know that my dream, my fantasy, is a reality.


It hurts me to say, but the truth can hurt,
There is a girl that I just want to slap.
Maybe I'm just having an anger spurt,
But she talks secretly; she talks much crap.
On the surface she is a happy one,
No matter what, she has a true dark side.
She seems very cheery and lots of fun,
But her true happiness and cheer has died.
It's surprising I used to be her friend,
After what she did—there's no going back.
Our friendship is completely at an end,
Me and other true friends are what you lack.
Walking around like you are the top ace,
Girl, you best expect a slap in the face.

This poem is about a girl that I used to be friends with. She ended up doing something that completely ruined our friendship and that's what inspired me to write this poem.

Girls are like phones. We love to be held, talked too but if you press the wrong button you'll be disconnected!
