Why

Seeing him from a 
distance,
Does he know I exist
Does he care
I thought he did
How could I be so 
fooled
Am I too selfish to 
see
His cruel ways
The way he uses
Hurts and deceives
Maybe I deserve 
Maybe I should 
suffer
The wanting is hard 
The loneliness 
unbearable
Why do I still look 
for him
Want him
Feel the need for 
him 
Sad when I don't see 
him
Smile when I think 
of him
Excited ,anxious
Nervous when I look 
his way 
Angry when ignored 
by him
Why?

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
