I Loved, I Listened, and I Lost...

an old poem I wrote before I finally found love in someone else, but I wrote while next to the person I am writing to in this poem (My current gf is not the person I am writing to in this)

Is it cheating if it's love,

is wrong to have such

a deep urge for you?

I've loved you from the start,

you found a way into my heart,

yet I don't have the guts to say it.

I know you're in a bond,

but then why am I so fond

of every chance I can see you?

Your smile and laughter brings warmth to my eyes,

every word from your mouth is always a surprise.

You're funny, kind, and talented too,

oh God why do I want to be with you?

Aa is nice,

nothing against her

but it nearly broke my heart when you said the words,

"I'm in love with her".

I see you with her, looking all starry-eyed,

And I wonder if you ever think of me on the side.

Do you feel my longing, my silent shout?

Or am I just a shadow, you don't think about?

Still this fondness grows deep inside me,

hoping one day you'll turn around and see,

the ugly truth I've kept for so long,

I think love you, way too strong.

Would you give me a chance,

could I have this dance?

Even if we just stay friends,

just one moment, then it'll be the end.

Author's Note

This is really old, I do not have feelings for this person anymore but this poem was interesting so I thought I'd share

This poem is about someone who loves a person but can't tell them. They feel sad because that person loves someone else.

The words are deep and full of feelings. It shows love, hope, and heartbreak. The ending is sweet, asking for just one chance, even as friends. Beautiful, Alice!
