I Was Told To Write

I was told to write But i didn't know what to say. All i did was sit there, all darn day. My thoughts were all jumbled, they made no since at all. My teacher told us to write. I said " i will be here until nightfall. She told me to open my heart to explore, search, and find, that one thing that would make me write. By now i had that one thing in mind. So i sat there and wrote all hour. I never missed a beat. By the time my story was done I knew that we would meet. Soon but not soon enough did my dreams finally come true. And i can't wait for that day. When i get to be with you. Forever is a long time they say. But don't they know. You can spend for ever with a person, and there will be things about them that you don't know. How i wish for that day to come. Hoping i will be with you. I will stand by you forever, knowing my dreams have come true. So, i sat there and i looked at my paper, looked at my teacher and said with all my might. I should have never listened to myself, when I said I couldn't write.
