This is a copy of the poem I wrote. It's based on my girlfriend, but she never moved away or had to leave or anything. But I would write this if she did. It's name You Had To Go.

You Had To Go

You are always so near
Deep down in here
But you are so far away
And I know you cannot stay

I remember our last kiss we had
Why did it have to be so sad
We had so many memories as a couple
And now they are so mournful

I wish I could always be with you
Now our time would be so true
I wish we were birds in the sky
And we would fly so high

But now that's just a faraway dream
Not everything is what it would seem
I just wish it would become real
Now I just need time to heal

If I could see you again once more
You would open the great door
To my beating aching heart
That had to be torn apart

You had to leave and go
Now I'm not sure if I know
If I could let you go
Now I'm not if I know

But I'm always so near
Deep down in there
And you are always so near
Deep down in here

So post some poems up here and we will be the judges the contest ends at 8/31/07
