Void In My Life

Her presence in my life's a must, lacking such my heart remains void. Annoyed 
by the joy that someone else shares with her, plus this girl's bursting with beauty 
and poise. I have been feeling this way for to long and sadly it will linger. I 
should’ve listened when mother told me loving this blindly could forever lead to 
danger. Yet I’m no stranger to this unpleasant situation. What’s complicated is 
nobody’s ever been worth me constantly waiting…until now. The most trivial 
thought of her stuns me to the point that I can only say...wow. My smile has 
transformed into a puzzled look. It’s been over a year and these emotions cannot 
be shook. She caught me hook, line, and sinker; now excuse me as I tinker with 
my heart for it has been destroyed. Eternally confined to the dark corner of my 
soul, waiting for the day she asks me to fill her void.
