#38 Next Time
I wrote this poem because I found a girl I really like, but she her parents have this thing about her having boyfriends. So I finally said we shouldn't have to sneak around to be together.
This poem originally was published in Love Poems - Teenage Love Poems
Next Time
I've thought it over and I know what I want, I need the girl who made my heart stop, Since first sight I thought I might fall in love, My secret mistress and long time lover, When will you be mine, Lately the thought has been on my mind, And I want you to be mine next time. I remember our first kiss and think about our last, I wonder will we be forever or a thing of the past, I wonder if you'll be mine and will it last but if not, we can try again next time. My heart will be yours forever, Because you've been there when no one else was, And you're my star from the heavens above, And if you can't be my only love, I'm willing to wait until next time. |

MeganI was with this boy 4 almost 7 months. I loved him so much. And when it came to the end of the school year he got involved in wrestling so we never got to see eachother a alot. So he tells me that if he is going to have a life outside of school we can not be together. But he promised that we would be friends if not more. We dont talk because he tells all of his friends that he hates me. I still and always will love him no matter what!
-
BubzarinaI really liked this poem! Its in a way like me and my first love. My dad was always against our relationship and it made it harder to see eachother. Though thats not the only reason we broke up! I still miss him and we had a next time, though he also had a girlfriend and I hope there will be another next time just we only have eachother not somebody else!

SharelThis poem reminded me of my first love. My parents wouldn't let me see a guy so we had to spilt up. He did so many bad things while I was away and when he tried to get me back I had already found out of the bad things he had done. I still love him to this day and will forever. But I would never take him back not now. He still loves me I can tell. but this poem i just wanted to let you know is very special. one thing is. keep on loving her. love never fades completly!

staceyI LOVED YOUR POEM! this poem relates to me and my boyfriend so much. im not allowed to have a boyfriend yet so our relationship is still a secret. he said hed wait as much as it took.
-
tabathaKevin, I just wanted to say that the poem was sweet and i was in the same situation but my parents finally seen how much the guy liked me and allowed me to date him im hoping that maybe her parents will see the same thing but if there not then i would have to say that you should wait because the best things are worth waiting for.
-
ninaI've been in this girl's position and my ex has been in urz. i think if you really like this girl then its worth the wait. and you know..if you prove to her that you do feel the way you say and will stick around you'll be sure to win her heart over. Much propz to you and this poem and good luck!

EliseThat is the sweetest poem ever and i envy the girl it is about I really hope you two are together forever its nice to see guys feel this way for us girls your a real sweety!
-
vali liked your poem alot i was in the same situation i'm the girl who can't date and lost this great guy who i really liked but let her reach her age and maybe you two can be.
-
NickI love this poem because it reflects what alot of people feel, including me, not being able to have someone because of restrictions or parents, or even because of unsure feelings. I give this poem a ten.
-
JulieKevin~ I think its really great that you feel this way about this girl.and i think its awesome that a guy can express his feelings this way. Most guys think the're too good for it or that its dumb. And i also think its great that you understand that her not being able to date you isnt her fault. You're one of the few good guys out there. Good Job.
-
majaLOVE IT heaps cool!
-
ASHLEYTo read this poem it makes me look into my own relationship... it's so similar, except I am the girl feeling this. My parents played a major role in breaking my love up. Thanks, it makes me feel good to know that there are guys out in the world who can express their feelings so well, and keep it sweet while in the process. Thank you Kevin.
