Amanda Masango Poet ABC

Allow Me To Confess

Would you call me stupid? 
Would you call me crazy? 
All these thoughts I have at the back of my head
Deep down I thought I had found
Peace of mind, 
Serenity and companionship 
My ride or die, 
Probably a relationship 
It was just a sinking ship

I think I fell for you. 
The long chats? Yes, they fooled me
I'd literally day dream about you 
 Thought you'd invest in us. 
Wait, there was no us??. 
So why did I fuss? 
If my feelings for you were just a puff and pass? 
Someone throw me under a bus. 
Confessions, confessions. 

Yes I did love you, 
Yes I did care, 
Yes I thought you were "mine''. 
But it's fine, 
No more rides
Time to let go of this disguise, 
I tried to hide 
Our hearts I wanted to bind
But love is blind. 

I think  of you every single moment, 
Your perfect lips? 
Like an ornament... 
Your hard fists? 
Prepared to fight at tournaments 
Your eyes? 
Made to pierce my heart
Your nose? 
Right under it is that soft voice of a serpent. 


Right now I wanna bury you alive,  
But how will I survive? 
You were my Jack, 
I was meant to be the Jill 
And not her. 
We were meant to be the next Romeo and Juliet, 
A tight ass strong duet. 
My bottle of Moet 
 My Chardonnay 

Give me a chance to confess. 
I love you but I can't have you 
I can touch you but I can't hold you
I can make you laugh but
I wanna be the owner of your smile

Kelli White March 6, 2018 at 9:03 AM Best to have lived and sipped from a glass of love than to have never known how it tasted. Sorry for your pain. But now you know what your soul desires and don’t settle for less. Kelli. Amanda Masango March 8, 2018 at 12:46 AM Thank you so much. Love teaches us so many things

Faraz Ajmal March 6, 2018 at 7:34 AM It s such a beautiful written poem, I must confess that it s really beautiful, you have written it so well that I really felt every word, I have never been in love but I have read many stories and lost love can destroy a person, you think of thst person every single day, every single moment yet you can t have that person, the worse thing is that you can t even hate that person, best thing to do, not to trust anyone easily, good luck, welcome to ps and continue to write such heartfelt poems Amanda Masango March 8, 2018 at 12:47 AM Thank you so much for the warm welcome and encouragement. I'm glad this poem touched your heart. Thank you so much, I'm soo excited
