Poetry Submissions, to cB news Options

[sadolakced acid]

hello poets!

the cB newspaper (letter, whatever) is looking to feature a poem (or two) every issue.

so: if you want us to consider your poem for featuring please:

1. Post your poem(s) in this thread
2. Post a link to the thread with your poem(s) (if you didn't make a thread already for your poem, then just say no thread)

please, no comments - if you wish to comment, click on the link to that poem.

please note that we are cannot feature every poem, and we may not be featuring the best poem; we also consider the emotion that the poem evokes, and if it fits with our publication. Poems submitted will always remain in consideration.

A young, beautiful girl; just at the age of fifteen,
With so much potential to do so many great things,
A girl so sweet with many ambitions and dreams,
But struck down at her peak; a disaster unseen,
How can this be? I still can't believe,
That something so tragic would happen to someone so sweet,
I miss you terribly, I know everybody does,
You were more than a great friend; an Angel sent from above,
It's hard to imagine life without your presence,
You were more than a part of mine; you were the essence,
I cried so much when I first heard the news,
It was a shock to me; I was so confused,
I refused to believe it; I remember the day clearly,
It was early in the morning; half past three,
Fearfully knowing the truth; I called you and texted you,
Then cried again while imagining the pain that you went through,
That same day, I stopped by your house around six A.M.,
I sat still in my car, not even daring to look in,
I sat there in sadness; knowing I'd never see you again,
It tore me inside knowing that I had lost a close friend,
I remember when we used to talk on the phone all night,
I remember looking with you in the sky for stars shining bright,
I remember the way you made me laugh and your beautiful smile,
I remember thinking how spending time with you was so worthwhile,
I will remember the things that you taught me forever,
And I will never forget the times that we spent together,
I miss you dearly, and I always will,
But now I realize that you are here still,
Because even though you're gone, we will never be apart,
For you will reside forever within my heart.
