i see you walk past
i tingle with a frustration only depression can handle
i bite my lip in anxiety
i pinch my arm wishing you werent such a god
i melt as you turn toward me
i smile as if the wound inside me has healed without a mark nor scar
i watch you sit down next to me
i slip my hands underneath myself fearing they might linger if you come any closer
i look deeply into your eyes
i search for a story and a life behind such beauty
i laugh at your jokes
i pour my bear heart out in front of you without thinking
i see your face change
i wished i hadnt seen your expression turn to sympathy
i take my hands away from beneath me
i turn away in embarrasment as you reach you hand and rest it on my back
i melt for a moment at the contact
i flinch away knowing i don't need the pity
i stand up and walk away
i hear your questioning footsteps behind me

Wouldn't it be easier to let you in?
Wouldn't it be easier to let you take me in your arms and caress my sodden heart?
But wouldnt it be easier to let you walk away?

i accept your touch
I let you in
i let you take me in your caressing arms
But i dont let you walk away

I turn my  head instead and stare into your eyes
I dont allow myself to trip deep into their pools of darkness
I let them read mine
And i let them close with a single tear falling down your godlike face

Wouldnt it be easier to let go?
Wouldnt it be easier to let you take me?
But wouldnt it be easier to tell you i loved you, and walk away?

*This one was so hard for me. I brought all my emotion together to say what i thought about things that dont work out. I  know heaps of people feeling this way at the moment but this one is especially dedicated to two of my closest friends struggling like this at the moment. (B and S) Love you always guys LOR*

This was very emotional. I could just tell from the poem that this came from your heart. Very amazing write. I love your poems.

Awesome write, I could feel the pain in this one, only wish there was an answer as to why people have such hard core feelings.
