but you proved me wrong.

The years went by like seconds;

they felt so short, yet still so long. - probably my favorite part:)

this was beautiful, it really was. it was like you told a really long story in a really short way, but everything worked.

again, i enjoyed this a lot.

happy writingggg(:!

Very nice poem. I like how you italicized some part of it, it added more meaning. I also liked how you told the entire life story. It gave the poem a more complete-ish feeling... if you understand...

Anyway, I liked it! Keep writing. )
