Hurting

A girl with incomplete love who is trying very hard to move on, but cant

She built a wall

Around her heart.

Then he came along,

And the wall fell apart.

She stepped out of the wall

Just to realize

It's still full of pain

And as cold as ice.

So she said to herself,

"This love thing, it isn't for me.

That's something

I finally see."

But before she builds the wall again,

She wants him to know

It was her love for him

That she failed to show.

If only he could see

What's in her heart,

How she feels for him,

The way she's torn apart.

"Please understand," she says.

"It's not you that I blame.

I know your feelings

For me aren't the same.

Maybe it's just fate

That I fell for you.

I just couldn't help it,

Although I knew."

he'll never love her back,

That she has to accept,

But loving him, knowing him,

Caring for him has been a joy

That she'll never regret.

She knows she has to move on,

And with time she shall,

But it's gonna be hard,

And it's gonna take a while.

Although she doesn't want to,

Believe her, she's trying

To let go of her feelings,

But a silent hope keeps striving.

For what she doesn't have

She does not complain.

In fact she's grateful,

Having someone to share her pain.

In these last few lines,

She just wants to wish him well.

May all his dreams come true.

That's all she has to tell.

With just one hope within...

That someday he will realize

Just how much she loved him.

If only he had seen...

But she will be long gone by then,

Inside her broken wall,

Never to come out again,

Never to hear the call,

With few memories to join her is her pain,

And a vow never to love again...

This is great, especially for a first. I like how consistent you were with the rhyming, and your work perfectly conveys the painful yearning of an unrequited love so I applaud you for that as well!
