I'd like an opinion on this poem

[Master.America]

This's a poem I wrote back in high school. Usually, when I'd let someone read this, I'd tell them about the story behind it. That would usually take an hour, so I'm wondering if this poem can hold up on its own. I want you to interpret this poem to the best of your ability. Enjoy:


::Never Forgotten::

I didn't forget the first time that we met;
'Twas in a summer not too long ago.
I adored your smile and your so-timid style
And friendship, o'er time, began to grow.

I can still recall when I first did stall
To confess of my ever-strong feelings for you;
But your heart was taken, and you were so
Shaken!
Alas, Our mutual love was true.

I really have missed the first time that we kissed
'Twas against odds in a time of great strife.
We were hidden, our love was forbidden;
But we had to stop for the sake of your life.

I still remember that bleak, cold November
That day you were most stressed from two loves
combined;
Thoughts you tried of suicide
So I simply pulled out; I made up your
mind.

I can recapture the end of our rapture
When, abruptly, our love came to a stop.
"We will always be friends, to any and all
ends!"
That was the promise I swore not to drop.

But now I must ask that you take off this mask
It hides these memories that you don't remember!
As if in a trance, you walk by--not a glance!
Did you completely forget of November?

Yet what hurts most of all is that you can't recall
When I told you we'd always be friends.
I wish you would talk, but instead you just walk
'Gainst the grain of my walk-without-ends.

And as you walk by, all I can do is sigh
With a hope that you'll someday recall.
It's my heart there's a hole in, but my friend that
was stolen!
I want my friend back... that's all.

oh~~I think it great!!But I dont quite understand.I know you love the girl all the time.right?

You met the girl in a summer day .And you fell in love with the girl soon.But unfortunately,the girl left for some reasons.You love the girl all the time and hope the girl back.

I like the poem very much.I'd like to listen the story.

But we had to stop for the sake of your life[/i]

what's wrong with the girl?

I see now.The girl commit sucide for some reasons.I like the sentence "And as you walk by, all I can do is sigh"
I know you are still very sad over the story.

Ok, that's what I thought...

Yeah, the girl was seeing someone else at the time--hence the lines But your heart was taken and stressed from two loves combined.

I was friends with her boyfriend a couple years before I met her. They were together for a good three years, but it was a sketchy relationship. When this happened, we were both really stressed out. She threatened to kill herself at one point, at which I finally decided to drop the whole thing. We stopped our fun, but promised to still be friends. She didn't hold up the promise, though, so I became more frustrated every time I walked by.

Maybe God wants you to meet many wrong people before you meet the right one,so when this happens,you'll be thankful.And dont cry because it came to an end.Smile because it happend.
