The Day We Met Poem by Stephanie Kravitz

Do you remember the first day we met?
Because I sure do.
We were in seventh grade.
You were new and new nobody.
I befriend you and you befriended me.
Five years have finally passed.
I never thought this could happen.
I never would of thought in a million years
That I would have ever have fallen in love with you.
Those butterflies in my stomach were fluttering away.
The way you made me feel.
In ran through my veins.
Now I can’t stop thinking about you.
Now I realize that we could never be.
You and I are just too much the same.
You knew we weren’t meant for each other.
You just didn’t want it to end.
I know it is hard.
To forget your feelings of love for someone else.
Now it is your decision.
It is either me or her.
There is no way out.
I can’t wait much longer.
I’ve given you your space.
I’ve given you your time.
Now I think I deserve an answer now.
So wake up!
I won’t be waiting much longer.
So Wake up!
Let me be with you.
Let my heart tell you a story of how
These feelings for you came around.
You are the one who was always by my side.
Through thick and thin.
How could you have dealt with me over the years.
I can’t believe you got me scared.
I’m am so scared.
Of what may come.
I’ve never really felt compelled to say
That I really really really like you
You are the one who is right for me.
Or how I feel now deep inside.
