Something About You

Wrote this poem today

I don't really know how to feel about this
When you came into my life out of no where
And started to raise me from my abyss
Of my own sadness like you actually care
Now I'm in shock because you haven't rejected me
And rejection is the only thing I'm used to
Now I'm scared you'll eventually flee
Because there's just something about you

I'm petrified you're out of my league
Everything just feels like a dream

I try to tread carefully as I move
Because I barely know you and you don't know me
And once you do, you'll disapprove
Turn away and leave me be
The fact you acknowledge me feels too good to be true
Just know that if you do leave me alone
There's just something about you
And I'll always dream to make you my own

And I feel like you will walk away
Or I'll wake up from this dream

We both know how beautiful you are
But it's not the only reason I long for you
Or, in my dark night, you're my North Star
That has an unseen ability to bring out what's true
Maybe it's your eyes that make me weak
Or it's the way you walk, talk, or smile
And all this happened in one short week
Now all I want to do I hold you for a while

I don't know how to explain my fear of something I don't have
But there's just something about you

This is love unrequited, yet not from her...it's from within...
Let your heart love and be loved, my friend...

I adore this angst, it fills my heart with something endearing...you opened a vein, and bleed "vulnerability"...

Breathtaking, Ian!

Ian I am swiftly falling in love with your writing... This is gorgeous.. I think you have found your muse..

"I'm in shock because you haven't rejected me
And rejection is the only thing I'm used to" that part is really sad... There are people in this world that truly care deeply about other human beings..

"I barely know you and you don't know me
And once you do, you'll disapprove" Be yourself Ian and write what is in your heart.. You don't need approval what you need is just to feel worthwhile... I think you are very worthwhile Ian... Keep writing.... It may not get you the girl you write these lovely poems to but one day someone will take notice and you will see you are truly worth it... xo Rose
