My mom wouldn't let my boyfriend and me be together, so I wrote this poem to tell my boyfriend how much I love him. It also is to tell him that we will be together again.
Not holding you in my arms is tearing me apart.
Being away is something I never imagined from the start.
I never thought we'd fall in love, so mad.
I never realized life without you would be so bad.
The gentle reassurance in your hand
led me away to a make-believe land.
Now my heart can't resist, but to yearn for your warmly embraced kiss.
And being with you is something I miss.
The things I'd give to have you in my arms -
To just hold you close and protect you from harm.
They said it will never work because of our age;
To them my love for you was just a phase.
When they came in our world and tore it apart,
It soon became a broken-promise land of the heart.
They don't know what we've been through,
How much you love me and I love you.
This can't be over; we're still not through.
There's so much we haven't shared - so much we promised to do.
I don't know how to hide my love enough so it doesn't show.
I can't hold back and refuse to let go.
If they only knew how you made me feel,
With all the problems you helped me deal.
How you taught me I was much more than I had ever thought -
All of the Joy, Happiness, and Love to me you brought.
You showed me I was beautiful outside and in,
And showed me true love time and time again.
One day I will return to you all you have given me,
In some shape or form; soon you'll see.
Send a message to my heart; promise me we will never part.
One day we will be able to be together every day,
And we won't have to worry what they say.
So when the time comes, promise me you'll take my hand and be with me
forever as long as we can.

This spoke to me so! The oneI love and I can't be together for two reasons and it drives us crazy to the verge of insnity! The big reason is that we are in different states and the second stupid reason is that we are of diffirent ethnicities so his father forbids him to date me!

I think this poem gets a 9 out of 10. I know how you feel my mother is doing the same to me and my b/f. But she has said that if i want to go out with him i have to move out of home. i hate keeping secrets from her but its what i have to do to be happy.
