so here is the story
you've heard it by now
you said you were sorry
for coming around
You said you were sorry
for making me cry
you said you were sorry
for passing me by
you said you were sorry
for treating me like this
you said you were sorry
for not giving me a kiss
you said you were sorry
for the pain you have caused
you said you were sorry
for putting me on pause
you said you were sorry
for previous times
you said you were sorry
for making me rhyme
you said you were sorry
for beating me down
you said you were sorry
for being a clown
you said you were sorry
you say it once more
you said you were sorry
you've said it before

As much as I enjoyed this poem because of how relatable it was and how much depth it has the amount of redundance that is present makes the piece seem more infantile. I'd also like to point out that even though there is a rhyme scheme present the fact that the poem has no separation makes it look a little messy. Of course that's probably just the perfectionist in me talking but still. Overall I like this poem but I think there is room for improvement. Please keep writing :]

To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing..

&quot;I&#039;m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can&#039;t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don&#039;t deserve me at my best.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe <br /> &quot;A wise girl kisses but doesn&#039;t love, listens but doesn&#039;t believe, and leaves before she is left.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe<br /> &quot;I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe <br /> &quot;Who said nights were for sleep?&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe <br /> &quot;Sex is part of nature. I go along with nature.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Marilyn Monroe
