Love Not Reciprocated
I had waited and waited fruitlessly
For a day like this to come
A day when you'll finally
Feel the way I feel for you
All were only a dream
Because your heart was never for me
I had waited at the river bank
Hoping that one day
You shall come; meet me there
Holding my hands
Laughing to my unfunny jokes
And walking down to the river isle
I had always succumbed to your isms
Hoping that that will win you over
But all my hopes were dashed
Because your ism and my ism
Was clearly different
Which makes me feel partially defeated
I had gone to your father's garden
Admiring the rose flowers there in
Sniffling into my lungs every sweet smell of each daffodils
Just like I have seen you do
But non ever made sense to you
You gave me zero hopes
Having been obsessed with my dream
Now I have realised
No matter how I tried
We just can't be together.
