This Heart

This Heart

What could I do,
if all you wanted, was true love?
Love, when all I do,
is wake in vain, to love another.

How would you feel..?
If what I told you, hurt?
Hurt you in your brave moment.
In your rehearsed plea for my hand,
to then sympathize.
To only misunderstand...

Would you..?
For this kind of love?
I hear you say you will stay strong. 

Please.
For how long?

A hundred miles,
I’ll wait for your hand.
To feel, to finally understand.
A million prayers have sent for your heart.
To please, not tear this friendship apart.

Would you reach?
Could you stand?
To help me up, to comprehend?
To be? I’ve whispered.
Don’t lie, lie to me...

I miss you when your gone.
So nervous to say otherwise.
To scared to admit, I'm only hungry.
With you, shares a different story.
Apathetic.

I am sometimes sorry, so sorry,
that your thirsty.
Begging me, praying for a change in weather.
Crying, changing for a chance to be together.

But it’s ok, to feel angry, sorry, or betrayed,
cuz I am sorry.
Sorry, that I cannot shine,
shine, with your beautiful heart beating next to mine.
Which will only be a distinguished fairy tale.
Which should only be forgotten.

"I miss you when your gone.
So nervous to say otherwise."
The test of love leave us wonder and pain. Hard to open doors when the hunger is too strong. I like the desire and the emotion of this excellent poem.

This, this one captures my full attention. Speechless, it has touched me, and related to me so. Saved as a favorite!

I love the emotions of this poem. Creatively crafted with thoughts and questions about life and love, but also expressing the determination for it. Great poem.
