A Love That Could Never Be

Is it wrong to love you if you’re so far away?
To wish to hold you and ask if you’re okay?
When I call and you’re not there, it hurts,
I wonder if this relationship will work.
Day after day I picture your beautiful face,
and feel inspired to go on in the chase.
I love you so much, so much till I cry,
on the phone I hear your saddened sigh.
What do you see in me? You ask.
This is a love that could never be.
I’m here and you’re there, and your family hates me,
stop calling. Its over. Just live without me.
I cry and cry, day after day, night after night,
hoping and praying that you may change your mind.

i have always maintained that complicated words and phrases aren't required to portray one's emotions and your write is another befitting example of that . simple words used as a means to bring out emotions from the core . the pain , the anguish and all the related feelings ~~ i know , i relate to and empathize cause i have and am going through the same . how we wish that they change their mind ... sighs..

This is so true. Long distance relationships hardly ever work, I know from experience. As much as you may want them too, sometimes things just aren't supposed to be.
Great job with the poem. Loved it.

[Ian Faraway]

I love the poem! Rhymes were not forced, they flowed. Long distance relationships are always hard.Good job.

[Marshall Hanson]

Wonderful poem. I can definitely relate. As the old saying goes "brave is the heart that dares to love". Keep up the great work.

I think that, if I wasn't drinking coffee right now, this would have made me cry, the pain and the hurt are embedded into your words, and even in the flow of it, the sorrow is still there, the whole piece is formed around what you're feeling and that is what makes is a poem, that is what makes it art. Gorgeous work, thank you so much for sharing.
P.s. I can relate

The idea of Forbidden love is never an easy one.... I like the emotion you put in this.

[Jonathan De Elvira]

A painful love yet so meaningful and deep....

Your title says it all...forcing love is bound to end horribly! I feel the sincerity here - yet, I hope you are able to do the right thing.
