Next month will mark 3 years Of my long and wasted love I fight my tears of joy, prayers answered from above
I am not completely invisible to you, as i thought And yet you are still unaware Of the heart you have caught
I remember my first sight of you, sitting in my form And your ****** expression When your uniform got torn
I remember your introduction Your shy lowered eyes And the quiver of your voice Getting words out after so many tries
Now I smile out of the blue Over our shy meetings But you still have no clue About me or my true feelings
When will you understand I'll do all that I can For my long and wasted love I'll be content with just a friend
I sit here and I ponder Over what the future will bring The little time left with you Before I'll only see you in a dream
My heart and my mind Continue to be unsettled I feel so restless and haggard Like I'm fighting a battle
You have flooded my thoughts Everyday, every night You've turn into my light You've brighten up my life
I have nothing to offer No beauty or skill All I have is my heart What I think, what I feel
Afraid of your rejection Afraid of your "okay" Afraid that you will hate me Afraid you'll turn away
Afraid that you would read this And then you would say "why would you write this poem? It's embarrassing, okay?"
This is me extending a hand Reaching out And these words on this paper Is me screaming out
Oh long and wasted love I've like you a long time It's been a secret all this while Until my bestfriend read my mind
I've already accepted That nothing will happen A thing with me and you Is too good to imagine
Tell you this, tell you once Make it my crime You'll have a place in my heart Till the end of time
Oh shy boy If only you knew How madly and deeply I've fallen for you.
A poem I wrote in the last year of high school over a boy I've had a crush on for 3 years. I was at that give-up-on-him stage with a small bit of hope. Btw we are in a relationship now.
