Love Letters

Love Letters

A Poem by Lily Martin
"

Can u guess?

"

To my infatuation, my crush, or whom it may concern:

I have great feelings I feel for you I can tell you are such a sweet and caring person
We may not know each other's life story but none the less this is how I feel
I would give anything just for you to even notice me I guess I am not the brightest star in the sky
Unfortunately it is unlikely that my fantasy will ever be a reality

It cannot and will never be for we are from different lifetimes and the difference seems like an eternity
When I attempt to reach out to you my words are only ever half realized appearing as only a faint interest in your life
Perhaps that is why so often I receive the cold shoulder I want to talk to you about so much more
But I fear what might happen if I come off over the top and it turns out that you do not like me

Sometimes I think to myself 'What do I have to lose' nothing but a valued friendship
I hold on to what I have for I am afraid that if I take that next step I might slip and die
All the while slowly stepping backwards a never ending cycle cast upon me by the fear of rejection
To step forward would be a moral victory but at what cost; Then again it might be losing what I already don't have

I just wish you knew that I want to be the one that you turn to when you are hurting and need someone
That I can be the strong comforting hug that fills your world and makes the pain go away
A kiss that ignites the fire inside you to see that smile that takes away my apathy
I want to be your knight in shining armor and be there to catch you when you fall (and never let you down)

And for all of this that cannot be I sincerely sign this

Just me
