It was unexpected
the words you said to me
                       your longing
                       your desire
I never knew
you eevn thought of me
                       with want
                       with need
And now you've started my
heart on a treacherous journey
                       fraught with pain
                       fraught with fear
Because you arent free
to give what you offer
                       your love
                       your life
Someones gonna get hurt
someones gonna lie
                       over you
                       over me

Very interesting poem.  I see what you are saying and have just one bit of advice to share from one that has been there.  If one cheats on the one they are with to be with you, you can not be surprized when the same happens to you with someone else.  Be careful with your heart.

yep..

someone is going to get hurt.

Don't underestimate the power of that hurt, it can bring you to you knees.

I love the poem.

The format brings the poem out vividly.  Well done.
