=Poem=
 
Today I walked into our building...
 
I saw you... and you...
 
And the same boy,
 
Talking to the walls that he called friends.
 
 
 
I looked into your eyes,
 
And your eyes...
 
And your soul...
 
I didn't feel you burn my brain...
 
But I bet you felt me...
 
 
 
Today I realized that there is hope in this world...
 
Not you... you... or you.
 
I only see a sane reflection,
 
And your not standing by me.
 
 
 
I've learned to ignore you,
 
Because you bore me --- into a category...
 
One that I find pathetic...
 
 
 
Just like you?
 
 
 
Today was just like every other day...
 
Except today was one day closer...
 
To the day that I never have to see you again.
<div style="border:1px dotted #4682B4;padding:5px; background-color:#F0F8FF">I tried to see the world through a friend's eyes... and this is what I came up with... simple enough? I screwed up on the poem though... the phrase "You bore me into a category" does not make enough sense... for my standards.
