Words

Ten words strung together in a line
Not earth shattering words
But words that changed my world forever.
I am not in love with him,
for I do not know him.
Although I wish entirely that I could.
Of one thing I am certain is that,
I love the way he smiles.
It makes my world seem brighter and sets my heart aglow.
I love the way his clothes wrap around his body like they were stitched for no one else.
I adore the way he walks,
talks,
laughs,
chats,
and I love the way he is.
He has no clue the thoughts that run through my mind when I hear another say his name.
He doesn't know how my heart races when he walks past.
Oh, how I wish he would though.
But it pains me to think that if he did...
he wouldn't feel it back.

In Between

The one I have known for so long.
His life has been seemingly intertwined with mine from the beginning of time.
His eyes look at me full of wonder.
Yet I can't help but think there may be another.
I will not set myself up to be heartbroken.
He knowns the innermost of my being,
yet he won't admit anything.
I love him to the ends of the earth,
but would he ever love me?

The one I have just met.
He has this smile that could make my heart race for hours on end.
He is quiet yet I can see his brain moving a mile a minute as his eyes race around the room.
Quite the unlikely pair, but I have no doubt it would work.
He is sweet and gentle unlike most,
and he makes me calm as a breeze on a spring day.
I love him to the ends of the earth,
but would he ever love me?

The one I see from afar.
He has the softest eyes.
The clothes fit on his body like they were sewn around his chest.
He walks like he has not a place in the world to be.
Only spoken to me once but the words flowed like a writers words fall onto the paper.
I love him to the ends of the earth,
but will he ever love me?

I'm torn between three on opposite spectrums.
The genial popular, the quiet spectator, or the one I know nothing about.
It will probably end up being none.
I'm just torn at the moment into little fragments,
working on trying to put them all back together.

Afraid

You were born with potential.
No one was in your way.
Courage.
Strength.

Why now are you holding back?
You're far to incredible.
Did that popular girl say something mean?

I can't do anything.
You have to realize on your own.
Who you are is completely incredible.
Why don't you let her come out for a while?

The ones that are worth it won't leave you.
They will only love you that much more.
Lovely, don't be afraid of this world.
It's here to scare you.
Step away and realize you're much better.

Goodbye For...Ever

I've always known you.
For the past few months, you're all i've experienced.
I saw another though,
he sparked my interest.
You thought I was replacing you,
but I would never.
I was merely exploring different things.
He was nothing like I had ever experienced.
Rough and tough and soft and meek,
all at the same time.
Nothing like the broken little heart of yours.
I was infatuated by every aspect of his being.
The way he walked, talked, functioned, and gleamed.
You spent your time crying for me to come back.
But I wanted him now, and he wanted me.
You left me.
You wanted me to be with you more than you wanted me happy.
You forgot all the memories we made.
The afternoons we spent together,
and the songs we sang as loud as we possibly could.
You left it all, because he made me happy in a way you could not.
I love him, and you can't stand it.
I guess you're gone now.
I'm not sure if our paths will ever cross again,
but in case they do...
I would have never left you,
he still makes me happy,
but I still would have made time for you.
He's here to stay, of that I am sure.
So goodbye, forever.
You don't need me anymore.

This is my first poem, so please be gracious.
