These feelings I have for you.
They are unrequited,
I know, but still...
My heart speeds up,
Every time I hear your voice,
And stops when I see you.
When you are near me ,
I try to take in your scent,
So that even when you leave,
At least it's still there,
Lingering lightly in the air.
I'm sorry,
That I can't be that person you adore,
That person whom your heart beats for,
That person you go to when you're in need,
Who's presence makes your spirit feel at ease.
I wish I could be the one you wished to be with,
I wish that you would let me into your closely guarded heart.
But I'm not,
I'm not that person,
And I know I never will be,
But I tell myself it's okay, because,
Just for a few minutes I can pretend,
That maybe that person you need is me.
Even though it hurts,
When you talk about other people,
I will always be by your side,
Crying silently on the inside,
Because, I still secretly hope that one day,
You will see me.

Thank you so much :), I checked out your blog, its really good, I left a comment and I'm following you as well. I really like your background as well.
You have so much talent. You need to publish your works. I would for sure buy it! This poem speaks to anyone who has been in a relationship that is suffering, or to people who want that relationship but know that it will not happen. I have been in this situation more then enough times. And I was hurt after it all. There is still apart of me deep inside that screams "I need you!" but I know that I can't have them. Way to hit the nail with the hammer!
Thank you Bailey. Not really sure I could publish my work haha. I'm happy with just knowing that there are people read my poetry and feel like they aren't alone in what they are experiencing in life.
I have no words
