I guess you'll be angry,
after reading what I wrote
So I suggest you cool down,
and my feelings here I quote:
"I always thought this was a show,
A silly game teens play
Hormones flowing with the flow,
A game destined to decay.
Never heard romantic songs
because I could not relate to them.
Thought all this was nonsense,
'cause I am too young to understand.
I know you despise all this,
I once despised it too.
But when I met you I realized,
there is a different view.
Some things are better
said than been withheld.
Because they make your eyes wetter
and come back when you are eld.
Although I've told you this before
and I believe I'm self aware,
I thought I would once again
like to clear the air.
That day, I wanted to forget you,
'cause I know how it ends.
Leaving two beings dismal,
never risking themselves again.
You told me it is momentary,
that it will go away.
But it’s just the contrary,
And I think about you everyday.
Once again, I may sound like a flake,
but I want you to know.
Your parents must be very proud,
your heart is as pure as snow.
I know you don't feel the same way
though I'm your best friend,
I just wanted you to be aware
That this fool is in love with you, now comprehend.
Alas! I'm running out of words again,
and I have nothing else left to write.
And at the same time,
have a heap of feelings to recite.
This is the best I can do,
The poem is my gift to you.
But if you tell me your honest presentiments
I'd still be friends
and never talk about this again."
Should I delete the first stanza and remove the quotation marks?
