Too bad for readers of this poem if they don't know the poetic record of your relationship with the future 'Dr.'. five stars. Have your 'girlfriends' at Yale sounded off on this issue? bri ;)

It almost sounds as though you and Peter hadn't talked about having a future TOGETHER. It sounds like YOU would like such a future, or am I overreacting? Maybe all of your poems are fictional; I doubt it.

We've talked about our situation. I'm far behind him university wise but I knew that going in. All I know is that I have 10 years of school left. We'll see.

The last stanza [IS it the LAST? ] is very introspective [a word I don't think I've ever spoken or written]. Tying 'theater' to 'acted' is a nice touch.

I really liked the theater/actor pairing - I'm glad you liked it =]

MARRIAGE? ! Bri, I'm 19. Only a CrAzY person gets married at 19.

An incredibly mature poem on a matter of such sensitivity. Very well articulated in poetic form, anais!
