About the Poem
We always have this set of ideals for our special one. But life, as fickle and volatile as it may be, never grants us the exact things we want. Same with finding her, I never expected that she was waiting for me, loving me . . . just there.
Just There |
| by Melvin Lee |
| Where you were, I did not see you. So close to me, but yet so veiled. Quietly you waited, upon my invitations; but still, somehow, I failed to note of you, yearning to be with me, but finding just a void. So sadly, you retreated; bowed, dejected. Finally when I knew of you, your devotion, so foolishly I did feel, like a simpleton. For I had looked so very hard for you, up/down/everywhere. but I just did not looked clear, in front of me, where you were . . . just there. |

i can relate to this because this once happened to me. i was looking for the one guy who would treat me better than anything and would love me for who i was and i didn't even realize that he was standing right in front of me. he was the one guy that i told everything to and i could talk to. he was one of my best friends and i didn't even realize that he was the one until it was too late. i wish i'd never made that mistake and i wish i could have another chance.

That was a beautiful peom. See I myself like to write poems even though I am only 15. I couldn't have said it much better than that. You seem to put forth passion when you write. I wish you much luck in the furture. Thank-you for the inspiration.

Simply brilliant- this happened to my high school sweetheart and me over 30 years ago - but fate dealt the right hand and now we're together again. This speaks volumes about the perils of overlooking what is within your reach.
