Infatuation

Infatuation

A Poem by Alexandra

You are the oxygen 
In the air I breathe, 
But yet I asphyxiate
In your presence...

Like poison in my veins
I burn to the sight 
Of your face
Because I know 
That I can never have you

Or maybe I'm jumping to conclusions too soon

I envy you, 
You and your perfect life,
Smiling so easily
While I drown in an endless sea of pain... 

Of course, why won't you smile? You don't know anything. 

Would it make a difference, 
If you knew? 
Would you give that girl up? 
Would you give up your infatuation for mine? 

Perhaps I'll never be her, 
I can't change the way I look, 
I can't mimic her smile, 
But I can love you... I can give you all the love in the world.

Isn't that enough? Won't you acknowledge me for that?

My fav. lines:

"You are the oxygen
In the air I breathe... "

So Romantic! I`m sure, you write with all of your heart.. don`t ya? Sounds very intriguing! Even your heart`s enough to blow the winds to.. any way. So, of course, I enjoy blowing along your words. Some kinda mixture of pain, emotions and heartaches`s too found in your poetry. Yeah, loving someone with all of the depth of heart`s enough, but making someone realize that how much love someone`s very hard cause... sometimes, the voices of heart can`t be heard to.. someone. Very nice imagery!

I know it hurts when the one you love is with another. I know it sounds cliche but the one you were ment to be with will come into your life when you least expect it.
