This poem isn't written about one of my experiences but of one of my friends. She recently met a guy that she loved and he did nothing but lead her on! He deliberately built up her hopes and laughed as he watched them tumble down again when she found out he didn't like her.

I have nothing against guys, but I do have something against the heartless, gutless ones who are too chicken to say the truth and would rather watch someone else get hurt when the truth finally does come out.

Some people don't believe that teen love is really love, some don't even believe it is possible. But believe me, everyone knows when they have found the one that they love, and my friend really did love this guy! She did not brag on about him as an obsession, yet she did not forget about him and only think of him when he was near. She only spoke of him in ways that a lover is spoken of and everyone who heard her speak of him knew that, too.

So to anyone who reads this poem, guy or girl, think about it and ask yourself if you are hurting someone who doesn't deserve to be hurt. I know that my friend didn't deserve it and neither does anyone else.

Sent From Heaven's Sky
I thought you were my angel,
Sent from heaven's sky.
I thanked God for your presence,
But now I wonder why.
You took your bow and arrow,
And aimed it at my heart.
You let it rip right through my soul,
And left me torn apart.

I started to wonder what went wrong.
I love'd you without fail.
But above all else I figured out,
You're just a typical male.
