The Perks of Being A Wallflower's poem, to the song ASLEEP, by The Smiths.

It's a brilliant book, and song. Hope you all like it.

I have to say this at the risk of being shouted at but I was quite underwhelmed by The Perks of Being a Wallflower. It seemed to me like any other coming-of-age american teenage book. Having said that it did show me some good music (althougth I already knew about the Smiths) and this poem is really good. Did the author write it himself or did he borrow it form somewhere?????

@Shopola

When I was younger I had never seen a 'coming of age american teenage book' that involved homosexuality, molestation, drugs, alcohol, and music like that book had. Some people are overwhelmed, some people whelmed, and others underwhelmed. To each their own. :) Love the Smiths with or without the book! I think the author borrowed it from somewhere.

@oxierox Thank you. Yes, it is exciting, though I'm wary about the casting at the moment...

[oxierox]

@sytrue I understand what you were trying to accomplish and so it's still beautiful :) loved the book and very excited for the movie - the author is screenwriting and directing so it should be AMAZING!

Well okay then, good. Thank you.

@sytrue No, I really meant no offense> Just an honest opinion.

[ChivsnLexi]

@writtenxsecrets It's actuall very similar to The Catcher In The Rye, just in a more current setting.

I was 15 and just learning to use movie maker. Sorry, and I think you did mean to make an offense in a way, because how else would I pay attention? At this point, I agree that the pictures sucked, and if I redid this video I wouldn't use them. I'm older now and surprisingly wiser than I was.

@DESERTICAa

Sorry, 15 year olds will do that sometimes. :) I do not think the poem will ever die though, nor will the song or the book. You still enjoy it? Do you still read the book and go 'wow' when the poem comes up? Then it is not dead. An oversensitive person who hardly cared for or grasped the poem will think so, but I do not think you are one of those people.

If you love the book and hate the song, then you don't have to listen. If you hate the book, but love the song, then listen and don't read.

Why did you feel the need to rant on something 4 years old? To bore us with an already stated and deflected opinion? That wasn't nice of me, was it? And that will cause you to get defensive, won't it? Be mature if you don't agree, and simply continue your life without this affecting you. Love to the song and to the book.
