Confusion of Love

Why must I suffer 
Why must I love a girl with all of my heart but only fill Half of hers 
Because I am unsure 
If she likes me but loves some other person more 
In my dream I dream a day that she is fully mine 
But am I only acting out the saying that love is blind 
Only time Can differentiate my feelings from the facts 
Only then will I relax 
But still I must ask 
If I am everything 
She wants and needs to see 
Why does she hold on firmly to the portraits of the past 
This question bothers me 
It seems to me 
That I can no longer be upset by these things I can only be disappointed by the actions I
consider wrong 
But maybe I am wrong 
For believing I can take someone and make them my own 
And own 
The key to their heart 
Maybe I have not played my part I guess I could considered my yearning heart not useful 
Or I can call it depressing art 
Several times I have awaited a call 
That did not come to me at all I wanted to ventilate my problems 
But could not because the person I loved 
Was not there to help me solve them 
Or give me strategies to resolve them 
But here I sit 
Wondering what is next I found out some but couldn't figure out the rest 
If two plus two is four 
And one plus one is two 
I guess you leaving me 
Makes me half of you 
This is what I feel 
This is my craft I figured out something but I'm not good at math 
So maybe you can correct me 
And help me do the math.
