I do wonder

Sometimes love comes amid many complications.

I do wonder......

About all these feelings I have for you I wish you'd tell me what to do I do wonder...... I don't want this to end badly Since I'm in love with you so madly I do wonder...... What it would be like to enjoy your smile all the more Since I crave seeing you walk through any door I do wonder...... About how I want to stay true But I don't know what else to do I do wonder...... Why I can't stop thinking of you Even though I really should want to I do wonder....... About me telling you what's in my heart And how your reaction could tear me apart

Hum...I came upon this from an old review you id for me. I do wonder, now, it's been 4 years since you posted this. Has your wonder claimed an answer? I do wonder....

The red font is perfect. A dichotomy of love potential or bleeding nothing. Love it!

[Ballpark Frank]

Thank you so much! I actually wrote this is 2005. It was a mistake that I'm glad I didn't make. 🙂

[ETERNITY]

Alrighty then! That kind of negates my advice: Just talk. Do not 'push' for anything more than friendship until you both "know"...and you will.

Love can come with many complications, but hopefully they end up being worth it!
I feel there is so much longing, but also conflicting emotions in this. Craving, wishing, waiting for someone, but also a feeling that timing wasn't right, or something is in the way stopping anything from happening.
Nice poem :)

[Ballpark Frank]

Thanks so much. This one ended badly though. I threw caution to the wind, expressed my feelings, and was shot down. But, that's life.

[Ballpark Frank]

But actually......things worked out for the better. Lol

[Mauricio Montoya]

Lost love but I love in this write it's love never had.
Thank you for sharing

[Ballpark Frank]

Thank you, and how very true.

[Mauricio Montoya]

Your welcome for an excellent write

If love fuelled courage then stories would have peaked and summited over and over again, it is the half of bravery's possibilities that gives us hope.

[Ballpark Frank]

Thank you! I appreciate your thoughtful comment.

[Scott Kris]

It is a game for the brave indeed. For all who know any of love’s truth know enough to own a healthy fear… Yet it grows into a respect and we take to the battle not without fear, because we know the fight is worth the struggle.

Fun read. Thank you for sharing.

Scott.

[Ballpark Frank]

Thank you Scott. That means a lot. I appreciate it.

Love is so complex, as we are unsure of how the other person would react to our confession if it was a crush. The line "I do wonder" is such a great one, as I interpret it as this person being imaginative of all of Scenarios in this poem and what could happen if it became reality, what would the other person do or say? I enjoyed reading this, the title "I do wonder" is a good one, conveys imagination

[Ballpark Frank]

Thank you so much! This is describing a woman who i fell very much in love with.....although neither of us was free at the time. They were powerful feelings....but to no avail. It turns out that i was much better off.

[Aura]

I see, sometimes love doesn't last for a reason.

[Robert Haigh]

I think we've all been there. But if we don't let that person know how we feel, we can never have them by our side. Better to risk rejection than keep silent and suffer the fate of unrequited love.

[Ballpark Frank]

You are wise. Thank you for reading this

Perfectly captures the anxiety, infatuation, and fear of rejection of a crush
