Chuck Bass: Facebook Poet
Chris Mohney
December 05, 2008
Noted versifier Edward Westwick -- a.k.a. Chuck Bass on Gossip Girl -- turned in a pre-Thanksgiving bit of poesy on his Facebook page, making good use of the venerable "when you [do x] I'll [do y]" construct popular in the oeuvres of sagacious hermits like the Jonas Brothers and Avril Lavigne. Nevertheless, this particular creative effort provoked a few Facebook responses from Westwick's fellow GG castmembers, all preserved after the jump, along with the full poem. Is "Danii Captain-Crunch Crawford" really Chace Crawford? An impenetrable mystery, just like Westwick's verse.
When you’ll walk away from me mad, I’ll follow you
When you’ll stare at my mouth, I’ll kiss you
When you’ll push me or hit me, I’ll grab you and don’t let you go
When you’ll start cussing at me, I’ll kiss you and tell you I love you
When you’ll be quiet, I’ll ask you what’s wrong
When you’ll ignore me, I’ll give you my attention
When you’ll pull me away, I’ll pull you back
When I’ll see you at your worst, I’ll tell you’re beautiful
When I’ll see you start crying, I’ll just hold you and and don’t say a word
When I’ll see you walking, I’ll sneak up and hug your waist from behind
When you’ll be scared, I’ll protect you
When you’ll lay your head on my shoulder, I’ll tilt your head up and kiss you
When you’ll steal my favorite hat, I’ll let you keep it and sleep with it for a night
When you’ll tease me, I’ll tease you back and make you laugh
When you’ll don’t answer for a long time, I’ll reassure you that everything is okay
When you’ll look at me with doubt, I’ll back myself up
When you’ll say that you like me, I’ll know that you really do more than I could understand
When you’ll grab my hands, I’ll hold yours and play with your fingers
When you’ll bump into me, I’ll bump into you back and make you laugh
When you’ll tell you a secret, I’ll keep it safe and untold
When you’ll look at me in my eyes, I’ll don’t look away until you do
When you’ll miss me, we were both hurting inside
And when I’ll say I love you, you’ll know it’s true.
[and now, the responses]

If I can clear something up briefly, the “poem” was written by a girl (who is not a native english speaker), to ed, and he posted it in his notes on his page.
That’s all. Carry on.

It has to be fake. Look at all the grammatical errors!
“When you’ll tell you a secret, I’ll keep it safe and untold
When you’ll look at me in my eyes, I’ll don’t look away until you do “

Considering there are 6 people on facebook with the name “Edward Westwick,” and all 6 of them have a picture of Ed (that is clearly taken from a photoshoot or fan signing and is not personal), how can we be so sure this is real?
And that poem sounds nothing like the poetry he read before, ROFL.

well if you search the names you cant add them as a friend message them or anything even if its the same network. it’s like beyond private, so maybe it really is them
