This is my fourth poem posted. This was actually inspired by an essay I
made for school. I got an A, excellent, perfect, and an award for it! But
when I tried making it a poem. it was harder than I thought! My story still
isn't ready but I'm trying! Anyways, this is another love poem by me! Yet
this time its rhyming! First and third, second and fourth. I have to admit
that it was really hard! So if it sucks I'm so sorry! It's just that
someone told me to try making a rhyming poem, and here is the result!
Please read and review people! So sorry if it sucks! I tried my best!

PS: Dedicated to Psychedelic Aya, who told me to try and make a rhyming
poem. Really sorry if it disappoints you! I am SOOO SORRY!!! PLEASE DON'T
HATE ME!!!

There And Back Again

Bright lights, brakes, a crash, and intense pain...
Those were the only things I could remember before I came here
One side shining brightly, the other pouring darkly with rain
My heart filled with terror, excitement and fear

To my left filled with dark, to my right filled with light
And where was I? Smack in the middle
Now trying to think with all my might
Racking my brain for the answer to this riddle

I remember vaguely I was with you, we fought after a date
You were chasing me to apologize, and then a truck came zooming at you and
me
Pushing you out of the way, I moved too late
The truck hit me hard, and soon darkness was all I could see

So I ended up right here in an unknown place
Not moving from my spot, still thinking and thinking
Then it hit me hard, my heart began to race
I finally understood where I was, my heart loudly thumping

I had to choose to step left or right
To the left meant to earth and to the right meant to paradise
Obviously I wanted back to earth, yet I look at paradise's sight
Going back to earth meant going back to the place I despise

I wasn't exactly the luckiest girl in the earth
Living with parents who force you to be perfect
Thinking about it they acted like that since my birth
After all, I was human, of course I was imperfect

I didn't exactly have anyone close
My best friend died because of a contact with fire
So I was basically a loner, with less friends than foes
Yet I didn't care, it wasn't anything dire

For a while paradise seemed like the best of the two
Yeah, life in paradise might be better than before
Sitting down on the ground still thinking on what to do
Thinking of my life again made me consider it more

I decided on paradise and I stood up from my position
Ready to leave earth I walked to the right making sure to walk slowly
Nearing the end, a voice suddenly cried out in desperation
Begging I would come back shouting desperately and frantically

Your voice reached my ears, and I stopped dead in my track
It made me realize something, a weight in my heart weighing a ton
There was still one thing on earth that paradise would lack
Could I live with myself with you forever gone?

Looking back at the gloomy side, then looking back at this side
My heart was torn between paradise and you
Your voice continued to beg me back to the place where you lied
But I remembered we fought, and I decided to forget about you too

Suddenly you shouted those three words, so beautiful in my ear
I stopped dead on my tracks, those words echoing though my head
Feeling warmth on my lips and tears on my cheeks I threw away all my fear
And before I knew it, I was lying down on a white hospital bed

When I opened my eyes I saw you there smiling in relief
Smiling back at you I mouthed out the words that brought me back
Those words seemed to throw away your worry and grief
Because the next second after I felt an emotion that I lack

Locked in your sweet tender kiss we lost all track of time
Yet I didn't care, and neither did you
For I felt your lips as warm and as sweet lime
And because I have come to know that you love me too

My parents came in and hugged me tight
And for the first time I've felt the love of parents true
Remembering the land of black and the land of white
That secret would just have to be kept from them without a clue

Though it took me almost dying to get the life I've always wanted
It didn't matter anymore; after all, I was happier
But every since that day I have always wondered
Would I really have died if not for the words of my lover?

Maybe yes, maybe no
It didn't really matter anymore
And now after that day I have come to know
That I will be loved forevermore
