Me
Words like this don’t come easy to me, but sometimes,
they’re the only thing to express…
For the longest time, I’ve been in love with you.
Three years, and my feelings haven’t changed a bit.
I’ve tried to bury them,
to make them go away, but they won’t.
For the longest time,
I succeeded.
I was able to forget about you.
Make myself believe I was over you,
but that was a lie.
After a time, when I started thinking about you again,
I realized that I wasn’t over you.
My feelings had only gotten stronger.
There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t think,
“This would be better if she was with me”
Your laugh makes me smile,
and your eyes make me melt inside.
I love the way you laugh when somethings funny,
and the way you smile too.
I only wish that I was the reason you were smiling.
Everytime I see you, my day gets so much better.
But I know that it’ll never happen.
That you’re too good for me.
It makes me happy to think that one day you’ll be happy.
But it makes me sad to realize the truth.
That it won’t be with me.
The best things in life are also the worst.
Because you make my life so much better,
but you also make it so much worse.
So everyday, I try to forget about you.
I try to forget your smile,
your laugh,
your eyes.
But all it does is remind me of you.
And that makes it hurt all the more.
---I decided to do a little writing about me. It was a real eye-opener. I just sat down a wrote whatever came to me. Everything in this is true, and was written completely from the heart. :)
