    In One Day

    In one day

    It was all tossed away

    And

     I was left with no words to say

    I saw you coming down the hall and my heart shouted

    We touched we laughed and my heart was bout it bout it

    I liked you a lot and my friends and I were happy

    It took lots of thinking but eventually I decided to give you my virginity

    Didn’t have many but in one day you became my very best friend

    I had two people I could lean on, Edward aka Mooky and Fran

    I was glad that you two hit it off because I didn’t want one without the other

    I finally realized it was official when you introduced me to your mother

    One hurdle down but still so many to get over

    Was happy to call you my friend, my homie and my lover

    Some people saw the bad which made me see even more good

    Why do good girls like bad boys? Because they rescue us from the hood

    I remember you told me you were going to make me fall in love with you

    Despite my denial and me trying to avoid it in one day, what do I do?

    I fell in love and from then I knew there was no turning back

    Couldn’t believe I fell in love with my best friend just like that

    And

    Then

    In one day

    It was all tossed away

    And

    I was left with no words to say

    The first big test had to be when I left for school

    I just knew you were going to do me wrong and have me looking like your fool

    It was so hard but we both hung in there tightly

    After we got off the phone I would hold the teddy bear you got me, nightly

    To take my mind off of you I started partying hard

    You didn’t like it, but I was like ‘what is he going to do? nothing he’s too far’

    I remember the ultimatum, you had me chose between the alcohol and you

    I tried but I didn’t last because when there was no class there was nothing else to do

    It hurt my heart coming forward telling you I couldn’t quit drinking

    I really didn’t think that you would do it but you broke up with me

    I cried so hard that night made me stop thinking, went and took a walk alone

    The bad thing was it was night, on a campus, and when I stopped crying I realized how far I was from home

    That was real stupid but eventually we got back together

    I promised to stop again until I got the news about my grandmother

    In that day a part of my life was discontinued and dismissed

    It was so hard to let go almost like a first kiss

    And

    Then

    In one day

    It was all tossed away

    And

    I was left with no words to say

    And

    In one day I decided to come home and stay home

    I just knew I wouldn’t be able to make it another year feeling alone

    I had a plan I just didn’t know it was going to be so hard matching the puzzle pieces

    I was supposed to be happy but then I started feeling how they felt towards me was not in what they teach us

    I was so stressed my body was leaning along with my mind

    My confidence trust and self esteem following immediately behind

    In one day I was forced to face a reality I was not ready for

    Its amazing how much can change and happen in just one day its like in the blink of an eye things can drastically change... great poem!!!

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
