Unexpected, there you were infront of me
Unexpected, we crossed eachothers ways, just in time to see
Unexpected, it all had happened so fast
I just wish I could make the unexpected last

So there I was,or even better there you were
The minutes past, God I can't even remember
I havn't talked to you,since forever
For a century we havn't sat together
I looked in your eyes, you into mine.
"Sigh" I wonder what happened to time
I wish I could talk to you more often now and then,
Too bad you're to busy-not having time to be my Friend.

Unexpected, there you was infront of me
Unexpected, we crossed eachothers ways, just in time to see
Unexpected, it all had happened so fast
I just wish I could make the unexpected last

the poem is ... unexpectedly good.

er..there are 2 minor mistakes:"Unexpected, there you was infront of me "should be "Unexpected, there you were infront of me"
and
"too bad your to busy not having time to be my Friend." should read :"too bad you're too busy- not having time to be my friend."

don't you think youiy should start each new line with a capiatl letter?
Calvin : You can't just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.
Hobbes : What mood is that?
Calvin : Last-minute panic.

Welcome. Anyway, I thought this was average. The word unexpected didn't work for me. I'll just go through with spelling errors and such.

Unexpected, there you were in front of me.
Unexpected, we crossed each others ways just in time to see.
Unexpected, it all had happened so fast.
I just wish I could make the unexpected last.

So there I was, or even better, there you were.
The minutes passed; God, I can't even remember.
I haven't talked to you since forever.
For a century, we haven't sat together.

I looked into your eyes; you looked into mine.
With a sigh, I wondered what happened to time.
I wish I could talk to you more often.
It's too bad you're too busy and don't have time to be my friend.

Unexpected, there you were in front of me.
Unexpected, we crossed each others ways, just in time to see.
Unexpected, it all had happened so fast.
I just wish I could make the unexpected last.


My suggested changes were in bold. I din't really like it. When you say just in time to see, it leaves me asking see what? Anyway, you're grammar wasn't great, nor was your sentence structure. Keep working on this and make your reader feel something.
"There's a light at each end of this tunnel,
You shout 'cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
And these mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again
If you only try turning around."

These were the only lines i really liked in the poem. The rest didn't really grip me. Your poem was okay. :)
Real poetry are those with the best words in the best order
