For Me It's Enough

Loving someone who doesn't love you back....

Was he looking at me?
No I don't think so
Why would he want to
He did say we were just friends

But, there's so much more to it
I can feel it
Right in my heart
That there's love here

Does he feel it too?
No I don't think so
Why would he want me
I'm not as good as the other girls

But, there are times when
He looks at me with those eyes
And I feel like I can fly
A love that is mutual

What should I do?
I don't want to stay this way
It hurts badly to stay away
Though he doesn't want me around

But, when I'm with him
No one can bother me
Because he makes me happy
Just to be near him

That is enough for me.

This is perfect!!! I know exactly what you mean here, I've felt it often enough before:) Beautiful work!!!!!! I especially loved the lines, "when he looks at me with those eyes/ and I feel like I can fly" eyes are the windows to the soul, and thus they attract the ones who seek to make them whole.... Anyway, brilliant:)

You did perfectly. These same thoughts ran through my head last year when I had a huge crush on someone who probably only acknowledged that I existed. Well done :)

You did very well. Question of love can make us wild with thoughts and hoping to know the real answer. Photo and words create a interesting poem. The mind can twist us up and leave us with hope and dreams. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
