Author notes
I was thinking of song lyrics when I wrote this. I imagine it being sung to a 60's pop tune with jangly guitars and an up tempo beat, like the Beatles in their Rubber Soul period. Or maybe mid-90s Material Issue. Or Matthew Sweet.
I know it sucks, but that's how I feel towards a girl I like. Can anyone offer constructive criticism, besides leaving out all the Penny's? Much obliged.
Is this too corny? Too gushy-mushy?

This is nice. Only really critizism I have is...the whole repeating Penny, nice stress, but it started to annoy me. Then again, I just get annoyed with kind of thing, ha.
The emotion in clear and it had a point to it.
Nicely done,
Ashley

Thanks for your comments! I repeated "Penny" so much because I origninally wrote this as song lyrics. I imagined it as a 60s pop tune with jangly guitars and a Beatly beat.
I'm glad you liked it. I'll check out your stuff, too.
