My first attempt at free-verse. Don't shot me, please! Thanks to Mystii for getting me hooked on the idea. So tell me how it went, please?


It h u r t s a little every time

you see him with her

because she's just ( b e a u t i f u l g o r g e o u s w o w )

& more perfect than you'll ever be

*+.*+.

He's your best friend

& it's a little s e l f i s h to want him so much

when you know you're not good enough

so keep your mouth shut – don't you say a word

*+.*+.

Close your eyes

& think for a moment

let his image overwhelm you

just drift away into f a n t a s y

where your dreams all come true

& he smiles when you walk in the room

cause that's what you do with him

& it means more than a simple ( h e l l o )

*+.*+.

Can you imagine

being m o r e than friends

& letting him catch you

as you fall deeper and deeper

& living like a f a i r y t a l e

that's about a ginger boy and you

dancing the night away
