Why Must It Be Difficult?

A poem about a past love that is hard to forget.

Why can't I talk about you in a normal way?
Why must I hide it behind my sorrowful eyes?
Every night, I cried myself to sleep, hoping that one day we could be.
Now that you took my existence for granted, I think I should end this suffering.

Even though you are loved by most people, including me.
I can't share this feeling of mine so easily.
I've always been in love with you, and I guess that you know it's true.
I can't love you anymore if you don't love me too.

They say falling out of love is quite difficult,
because no one can fall out of it.
I'd never thought that it would be this painful,
this agonizing, slicing, burning in the pit.

Now that you are only an irreplaceable memory,
I still cannot erase you out of my mind.
Your face has forever burn through my eyes,
Slowly scratchy it's way back, leaving me blind.

Blinded by your smile, blinded by your charms.
I can't help but still think of you.
How can you do this to me? Hurting me so?
If it isn't meant to be, tell me, tell me, just tell me to let you go.

great poem about the pain, and suffering associated with unreciprocated love and how especially difficult it is when the object of affection sends mixed signals.
