[hometext] => I don't know if i can ever give this to him or not....please tell me what you think....
[bodytext] => Caught up in your trap that enthralls me once again. You seem so perfect for me that I don’t want to just be a friend I am so comfortable, so free, you remind me how to breathe I feel so close I could cry, but you keep me out of reach. You tell me things that burn, the brutal, honest truth But even when your words scar, you are there to soothe Not in that way, though, not in the way that I seek For I am not the girl you see when you close your eyes and blink. You dream of that girl, the one I see through green eyes She has the glow I envy, no flaws she needs to disguise Why her? Why not me? I can’t help but question But I can easily see why with all her glorious intentions. She holds such beauty in your presence and tramples on your dreams While I sit there and wonder if she’s as grand as you make her seem I tried so hard for you to want only me Change my hair, change my clothes and then maybe you’ll see You enter a room and I can’t help but stare But you see right through, you’re not even aware You tell me I’m pretty, but who else hears your lies? Am I just one of the others that you secretly despise? It’s far from easy to tell you all of this Especially with everything I’ve told you, but I cannot dismiss What I’m truly thinking when you tell me what you think Because you’re the one I think of when I close my eyes and blink And I know how much you like her, but this I can’t ignore Because I like you equally, and if not maybe more And this poem that I’ve written still is falling short Of all the things I feel and how much I need your support Please try to understand, and don’t get mad or leave I’m not trying to talk you into liking me, or have something up my sleeve Just know how much I like you, no matter what I’ve said before, And don’t leave me alone either, because that’d hurt even more I’m sorry I’m not enough, it’s just so hard to let go And I’m not sure I can, I only want you to know I’ve hidden how much it hurts each time I see your face And I know what happened before is still, to you, a mistake But you won’t ever know even if I told it all How much it killed me inside and how hard it made me fall And now, a year later, when I’ve done my best to change I can’t help but wonder, if I’m still not in your range It seems pointless and silly, so immature But maybe telling this to you can be the only cure. Tell me what you think of me now that you’ve read my thoughts Don’t tell me I’m just being stupid, that you’re not worth this cost Because I like you so much and it’s not something I can neglect And I’m sorry I couldn’t say this, but if I had I would forget All the things I needed to say and the words to say it right Please tell me I did the right thing, I don’t want to have more to write [comments] => 4 [counter] => 368 [topic] => 33 [informant] => kayald [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SecretLove )

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. ©
