Excuse Me.....
May 9, 2012
Excuse me
I’ve got something to say
And when I’m done
I Promise you
You’ll be happy that you stayed
This is just a little something
I wrote only for you
And we’ve been friends for so long now
It’s time that I tell you this
Before I’ll even tell you this
It’ll be over, said and done
So why don’t we seize the moment; freeze it and own it.
Why don’t we begin?

That's a really good start for a first poem. I can tell you're an advanced writer. I like your diction a lot; it made the character of the poem. Nice job. That's impressive for a first try!

great job twin!(:
For a first poem it's got a lot going for it! It may be short which disappoints me a bit because you had many opening for expansion, a few more stanzas, etc. But I like the idea of having to tell someone something, a sort of long-overdue confession. And the last stanza about freezing time and beginning made the poem stand out in my eyes because it made you wonder, what was it you wanted to say and why savor the moment? Sounded a little lovey-dovey to me but that's just my guess ;) Keep writing!

i read the poem two times over, and got a little dissapointed there was nothing you said at all :P but the poem's good, and simple enough, nice effort for the first, though the last line, "why dont we begin?" felt a bit vague. but keep writing!

I think it's a really good poem, especially since it was your first one. I'd be glad to read more of your poems if they're ever written lol. Keep writing :))))))
