I saw you today
And it felt like forever.
Your eyes are like a poet's,
Everything fades when you're around
And I need you to know it.
I saw you today
And it felt like forever.
Your eyes are like a poet's,
Everything fades when you're around
And I need you to know it.
I was eight years old,
and everyone around me was dying.
I wish I was younger so then I wouldn't
understand what war was.
Now I'm twenty-six,
and everyone around me is dying
The girl with the Polaroid in her phone case
is the one I want to kiss.
The girl with the Polaroid in her phone case
doesn't even know I exist.
The girl with the headphones that mess up her bangs

Beautiful poem, Izzy, and to think you created it from mixing and matching words from the poems found in Anthology 15! Thanks for joining us at YWP in Burlington today!
Of course! I had a blast! :)
