  Reality is always bitter! I found that when i started to stare at the MOON at NIGHT. Perfect words with worthy meanings & Emotion makes this poem Terribly Great. I can only say that to the POET, U R GENEOUS.

  I love your poem. Like other people siad it reminded me of one of my childhood friends that lived across the street. we used to play everyday and now whenI see her she just walks past me. But sometimes I just look back at all the fun that we used to have and smile. So thank you you poem made me remember some more that I had forgotten.

  that poem was so cool. it told a whole story but it didnt use the frilly flowery language that just gets ya confused. it was short, sweet, and to the point. GOOD JOB!
• Zaid
  it is something very beautiful. something very true.
• Kie
  wow your poem is so beautiful, it's like you were describing my frienship with my friends. It shows that you take the little things for granted such as living close to your friends and riding bikes. I never realised how much it meant to me until it was gone.
• Kevin
  I'm a 19-year old male college student, and this poem just reduced me to tears. It reminded me of the innocence of a childhood friendship that I shared with my best pal. Remembering all the good times, it was an era in my life for which I have the greatest nostalgia. Sadly, after 9 years of friendship, he moved far away in 1997 and I haven't heard from him since.
• Kiara

• Liz
  I loved the poem, it touched me, it reminded me of what happened between me and my best friend, i moved away a year ago, and i miss her so much, we have changed alot, and i cried so hard when i read this. I had to call her and we cried together. Your poem has just touched me, thank you for writing such a beautiful poem.

• Smarty
  This poem touched my heart. I am in my middle teens and I can see my childhood slipping away before my eyes. I wish it wouldnt and this poem expressed those wishes. So thank you to the author for putting my feelings into words.
• Amanda
  Dear Amanda, i really enjoyed your poem because it really reminded me of my best friend who i've known my whole life. We don't talk anymore im a freshman in high school and she's a junior. it really reminded me that our memories will live on forever no matter what happens in life. And i can't help but thinking about the memories. You got a talent girl keep it up! I loved the poem!

• Nicole
  Dear Amanda, when i read this poem i did indeed remember the old times of my childhood. i am only 15 but i have known my best friend for 9 years. only two short years after we met she had to move away. yet still through all the hard times she was there for me and i for her. now we sit on the phone for hours on end talking about the old times just to forget the new times for they are so much rougher. thank you for your talent. you may not realize it but you have touched many others without even knowing them. your poems go striaght to the heart and leave foot prints there.

• Chanel
  Wow! I really loved your poem. it brought a tear to my eye. i used to have a friend just like you and then i moved away and your poem is exactly what happened. i think that it is so great that you wrote about this. People just dont realise just what sort of commitment FRIENDS FOREVER means.
• Elizabeth
  Im just about to leave school, and this poem has really made me realise that even though we're leaving, we'll still have our past, and no one can ever take that away from us. thankyou!
• Rachel
  This poem really struck me close to the heart. I just turned 20 and I have been thinking a lot about the past and how I always wanted to grow up. Now I really miss my childhood and the things that seemed so hard to me then. The things that used to seem hard are pale compared to the problems you face in adulthood. Thanks for writing this poem. It means a lot to me personally
• Tiffany

  Hey Amanda, That was a tight poem. I read it and I thought about my best friend who I have known since i was 3. After 8 years we were finally reunited and this poem described his and my friendship to a "T".
• Melan

• Nicole
  This is REALLY good..
• Amanda
  I have read all of your comments and I just want to note for the record that I am very very touched that my poetry has in some way helped others connect with themselves. We all sit and think of ways we can reach the world and change lives forever. I look at as if I can impact one persons life I have accomplished a huge goal, but today I see I have impacted many more and for that I am grateful. Good luck to all and God bless. :)

• serena
  anyone have a tissue?? Oh my gosh this poem made me cry just thinking of how innocent we are when we're children and of all the friends who come and go in our lives but leave a little bit of themselves in our hearts. To the author of this poem,I give you 2 big thumbs up for this very beautiful poem.
