And it tears me up inside
Because you both mean so much to me
That my feelings, I must hide.

I long to hold you close to me
And tell you how I feel
I've done it many times before
But never once for real.

I'm glad that you're happy with him
And that he's happy with you
I try to stop from announcing
I could make you happy, too.

I know I couldn't spoil you
The way he seems to do
But I could give you everything
A poor love is supposed to do.

I'm around for you to use
Whenever you need me to be
But when I see you look at him
I wish he would trade places with me. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 301 [topic] => 33 [informant] => sir_odd [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => SecretLove )

Wow, this was a nice heartfelt write. I am sorry for your pain and it has been said " You never know what you have until it is gone". And also, "You never know what you've been missing, until it arrives". Just a little inspiration for you. Good Luck to you and thanks for sharing.

Sad. I'm sorry for your inner turmoil. This doesn't seem to be something that you could share out loud. It is a good poem and poetry is a wonderful way of dealing with life. Call it a diary, a journal or poetry - when you reread it you'll know where you were in life..

Good luck,

J~

It's sad that your feelings can never be expressed to that person. It is a lovelly piece and at least writing about your feelings gets them out. Keep looking though...sounds like you at least know what your looking for...there are lots of people here on the planet to chose from who could use that love you have to give.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
