Something i wrote a long time ago

"A Girl I Knew"

I once knew a girl so tender and soft

A girl that illuminated every room

or so it seemed to be an angel to me

I once knew a girl so nice and sweet

A girl so kind she would always help out 

I girl who alleviated every one's needs

I once knew a girl so attractive and comely

A girl who always looked graceful

and when she wasn't she'd still looked likable 

I once knew a girl so smart and funny

A girl who aced her tests and made jokes

to put smiles on the rest

I once knew a girl who was a good friend and caring

A girl so sad at the idea of leaving her friends

and not returning

I once knew a girl I liked so greatly

A girl I say I haven't been in touch with lately

she was the girl I met some time ago

A girl I'll remember because of my woes

She brought much happiness into my heart

and also pained me with saddening darts

I was too shy to say what I felt like

Now all these mixed feelings are about to make me melt

So I say this to everyone chasing love:

Love is a dove

Pure and white

Catch it now before it begins to fly
