What My Girlfriend Doesn't Know

Dear Reader,
                   Young Love, a term that relates all to well to people my age. Almost everyone has experienced it sooner or later, and it almost always ends the same way. But no matter how one knows it will end, but love is still attempted. In What My Girlfriend Doesn't Know,this is portrayed through two characters, named Sophie and Murphy. The book goes through the hard and good times that they experienced with each other, while trying to work out their relationship. The book is written in poetry, so that will be a very big part of the blog.
Enjoy the Reading (:


Haiku's For Sophie

Spring has come around
I will sit and watch with you
All the roses bloom.

We escape the heat
And retreat back to your bed
Underneath the sheets

The leaves are falling
And it's starting to cool
But we're warming up

Snow is everywhere
And I'll hold you nice and tight
No fire is needed

The seasons will change
But I'll always remain here
with you forever

At the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet. - Plato








Murphy                                                          Sophie


I Love You                                                      I Love You
But I'm Sorry                                 
For The Names They Call You
All Because Of Me                                            All Because Of Me
                                                                    You're Exiled 
                                                                    Worse Than You Ever Were
For All Of This                                                 For All Of This
Seems Worth It
I Don't Deserve It
I Couldn't Stay Away
From Your Love,
Your Lips,
Your Touch                                                     Your Touch 
                                                                    Gives Me Comfort
                                                                    Beyond My Wildest Dreams
                                                                     No One Else,
                                                                    Can Mend The Seams
Like You                                                          Like You
I Too, Love This Thing
We Have
But Being With Me
Hurts You,
And
I'm Sorry                                                          I'm Sorry
                                                                      You Feel This Way
                                                                      But Nothing Can,
                                                                      Or Will Stop Us
                                                                      Because,

I Love You                                                        I Love You


You speak of awe, and make every word taste sweet. Dance Gavin Dance


" You're Such A Murphy"

You're such a Murphy,
You're so different
and so weird
and an outcast
But being a Murphy 
shouldn't be considered an insult, Robin.
Because you're different
in the way that you treat me with respect
You're weird, 
in an artistic, sarcastic, handsome way
And you're an outcast,
but outcasts rule (:
You may be a Murphy,
But you're mine, Robin Murphy.

I never knew what I would do, if anybody tried to take you away. Dance Gavin Dance


I picked my genres for many reasons. I picked Haikus, because in the book it goes through a year of them being together, and I tried to show how close they were throughout the seasons. Next, I used a two voice poem, to show almost a conversation between them, and what their thoughts were throughout the book. Last,  I did a freeverse poem, because that's what the book was written in. It gave the book a much more artistic feel to it, therefore I felt it was important.
