Just A Child

I feel so small...

Resting atop the highest of trees;

The sweetest forbidden fruit.

Lying in a seemingly endless hall

At the furthest possible point.

Your mind lies, untouchable.

Simple words of admiration

Cannot reach your unimpressable mind.

Infatuatory words do not compose the key.

 

Drawn like a moth to a flame,

Burning for you, love.

Driven by infatuation;

Infatuation for Hell's angel.

 

But shame colors my face

Like the most hideous of masks.

Because in your eyes,

To your sweet, untouchable mind,

I am simply a child.

 

And a child to you

I will forever remain.

Author's Note

Unimpressable isn't a word, I don't think, but I liked it. I like this piece, but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna piss some people off. Sorry in advance.

great poem - one thing I have been remembering lately "Never say Never" Be patient, that person may come to you or even let you come to them.... as Antonio said though, don't be in a rush to jump out of that wonderful tree.

Cheyenne, what you may lack in years, you make up for it in poise and wisdom. Don’t be in a rush to jump from the tree, believe me it all goes by so fast. And another thing, no matter what your age, there will always be that person that seems beyond your range. You just never know how things can turn out. As far as pissing people off, nothing would ever be written if we worried about that.

Fantastic write!
