Steal my kisses and take away my breath.
Devour my soul, ‘till there’s nothing left.
Roam my thoughts and know how I see,
But my heart’s too guarded for you to obtain from me.

You impress me much and I can’t impede,
The attraction that I feel for you indeed.
But the more I learn about your days,
Raises my shield without a delay.

Your guard is just as high as mine,
Untouchable from someone much too kind.
Unsure of the right steps to take,
Hesitant on making a terrible mistake.

…I’m afraid I could love you without my demand…
…I’m afraid that second best is where I shall stand…
Unknowing of where our journey shall end,
…And denying you’re more than just a friend…

I’m at your disposal to throw me aside when you please.
Just leave me my heart to keep the pain at ease.
You paint me my smiles whenever you are near,
But also know, that you can bring me to tears.

So keep your heart guarded and I shall do the same,
And both our emotions will be easier to maintain.
Keep it locked up and hide away the key,
And when it ends, it won’t hurt so much… for it wasn’t meant to be.

Hey, Gracie.

Wow. This poem was magnificent(sp?), but then again, all your poems are, right? However, I like this one especially. So much so that I actually read about 3 or 4 times before posting a comment. ^^; I dunno... I guess maybe it's cuz I can relate to this poem. It made me feel kinda... I dunno, but it did make me feel something. This, and the poem about your lil bro, are your 2 best poems ever!! As to which is better, I can't say. Perhaps they're both equal. Anywho, this poem was great, and I loved it. And if this poem reflects something about yourself... then I'd like to try to lend my advice. Or at least my opinion? *shrugs* I think you should talk to this person about this, if you haven't already. If it's enough to write a poem about, I think you should try to resolve this with that person. Perhaps it might take a lot of courage, more than you think you may have, beleive me, I can understand that. But like I said, if it's enough to drive you to write a poem about it, you should deffinetely try and talk to this person about this. Anywho, bye for now, where ever you may be, and take care, Grace.
