My James Dean

My James Dean lookalike
Where are you tonight?
Do you remember my smile?
As I lived within yours

Those walks downtown
A granola bar, a cigarette and me
Initials within a heart, while playing guitar

Three years ended within movie star memoir
Photograph memories of love
Everywhere, what I wouldn't give to see my James Dean

Very well-written I can feel the teenage years within me while reading this, it's youngest at heart kind of poem. Very well-established

Very nice poem too! We should all have a James Dean, someone with perfect looks and manners, but who's sometimes a bit rough...to woo, to date, to link with, to love and then to brake up with!

That was me, LOL. A year later people still say I can't believe you dumb James Dean. It's like you try dating a celebrity.
