03/07/2008 Eyes Wide Open Poem by Coreena Dejesus

How can one person make someone so confused,
All you think is that you have been accused.
Don't you realize I believe them this time,
My friend? What my friend oh that’s such grime.
You tell me no I didn't do that, never me,
So my friends are liars they didn't see?
You dare to touch my friend and think I won't know,
You touched her and everyone saw the show.
Come on now how stupid could you be,
Did you think that it wouldn't get back to me? ?
How many times you going to break my heart,
One, Two, Three, are you kidding from the start?
But no don't feel sorry for me, I'm the one that’s dumb,
I'm the one acting blind as you did such scum.
This girl can only be so dumb for so long,
I'll eventually not put up with being done so wrong.
You will be the one in tears wondering why you lost me,
Thank you to my friends that opened my eyes for me to see!
