 The Poetry of Love

Unrequited Love




In all the world, I fell for you
You don't feel the same
This much is true
It hurts to my soul
but no one can see
I smile at the world
hide the pain inside me.

I've given you everything that I can give
and all I desire was simply to live
In the light of your smile
In the warmth of your arms
Safe in the love that keeps us from Harm.

Although together, there is a distance
Its in your face and your resistance.
I reach for you, you pull away
I ask myself why should I stay.

I remain strong, and faithful and true
to my self, my values, my virtue..and you.

I hold my head high, my beliefs stay the same
although I am weary of this tired old game.

Whatever I give seems never enough
though my heart breaks
it makes me tough.
my tears fall softly in the night
too proud to be seen by the daylight.

But..
My life will go on
as I remain strong
and softly tuck away the part
that secret center of my heart
reserved for the one who loves me true
and means the words I love you too.

One day I will be first in someone's heart
so close in love and never apart.
The joy will be ours and our love so strong
We'll take on the whole world by storm.
and we'll show the world anything can be done
When love is true and two become one.
