Urequited Love

The tears I cry,

Flows from mine heart.

As it overflows its banks

It displaces burried pain,

And ignites hidden hurt. 

 

Eating away at my soul,

Is this monster of emptiness.

Tearing away at love i had stored,

Reducing my strength and perseverance,

To childish dreams and utter sillyness.

 

What have I to lose now?

Everything that mattered most,

...Is already gone.

And what I deemed most precious,

Is no longer my own.

 

Love now leaves me here to think...

Is 'She' really worth my finding?

And even if 'She' really is,

Will I find her...

In my life's short timing?

 

OR...

 

Maybe... Love has forgotten me,

I guess my heart's prayers have gone unheard.

Maybe... Love thinks I'm not worth her time,

I guess my requests has been labeled absurd.

 

The current silence which fills me,

Screames the truth i failed to see.

I'm not worthy of 'Her' time,

So 'She' passes me by...

Her disapproving glance,

Leads me to commit a self hell-bound crime.

I really like this poem, it conveys a strong feeling and leads the reader to empathize. Also some parts are a little vague, letting the mind wander. And I feel that makes a good poet. I really enjoyed it!!!
