I choose this one, Kristine...It's more meaningful. It's from the heart. Great art is driven from real life experiences. I think this poem was truly inspired with a great message and a heart that speaks the truth. The one thing that makes art... art, is if it can be interpretted with freedom. It was made with freedom so it must be treated as such. Other thing about art is that it has to power to draw an emotion. I think this one does both very well. I think that you speak for other people here. Your poem said a lot more than I could...There is just so much I want to say...so much I want to fix.

Tell Me
Please tell me the truth…tell me who you really are
You retain a million personalities inside of you and reach so far for the bright star
We act like we’re really close, but there are many oceans that stand in between us
Are you the demon who brought hell upon those who trespassed against you and filled them with distress?
Are you the same person I fell in love with?
Or are you the angel who reached out to the hurt forthwith?
Some people try to make you happy, but why can’t you do the same for them?
Is it because you are too blind to see that they sacrifice everything for you not to condemn?
There is no such thing as “stealing” people away
A person can steal an object, but never a person in any way
You heard it from her own mouth that she is your friend and she will never ever leave you
Face reality and accept the fact that you can’t control everyone’s lives because they have their own lives to pursue
You’re mood is like the changes of the season
God made us different for one good reason
He made us to be unique in our own way
“God help him find himself…” I’d pray
In my eyes you’ll always be constantly changing to find the real you
I love you the way you are and it will always remain true
But I hate the way you want to be someone you’re not
Through the hard times, don’t ever think that I’ll leave your side because I’m not
I’ll be mad and disappointed by the wrong actions you choose to do
But that will never stop me from loving you
If tensions begin to grow between us and we become enemies, I will pray for you
Because I don’t only pray for my friends to be better, I also pray for those who are against me too
The sweet-sour feeling being with you gives me a new purpose of living
When you hurt me, I always end up forgiving
Don’t be afraid to admit that you’re wrong because people make mistakes
But in order to learn from our mistakes, we must improve ourselves whatever it takes
I’m stuck here confused and trying to figure out who you really are
Our purpose of living is finding out who we really are…
