I found this poem that I wrote 3-4 years ago, I love when that happens! In my opinion this is one of my best pieces, and extremely heartfelt at the time of writing.

(On a side note, I realise many of my poems start with the same line, but what can I say.. I normaly want to write someone something


I want to write you something
Something I cannot seem to say
The feelings that I have for you
Grow deeper every day

This is exactly the type of rhythm
I was trying to avoid
These words just coming out this way
Though it seems to fill the void

At least I am getting out
What I've been thinking for so long
Wanting to just tell you
But so much could go wrong

You tell me to take chances
But the consequences could be scary
The thought of pushing you away from me
I can't help but to be weary

You just said goodnight to me
I'm hoping I don't lose inspiration
Keeping these thoughts pent up inside me
Feels like mental constapation

I can't get you out of my head
And I'm not sure if I show it
At this point it doesn't matter
Pretty soon you'll know it

You truly are beautiful Ashley
And this you need to realise
A beauty that just captivates me
When I gaze into your eyes

We've definitely got something special
And I don't want to lose it
But could it be a waste
If we don't try to use it?

I've gotten random feelings from you
In which I'm sure I've pondered too much
Though a lot of those feelings shined through that night
WHen I finaly felt your touch

I hope you can relate
To these feelings I have for you
Because if this letter backfires
I don't know what I'll do

Do not let this letter deter you
From what we have together
If you don't feel the way that I do
Then it's just a silly letter

The feelings that I have for you
Are much greater than that of a friend
But if the feelings are not mutual
Then this is where those thoughts will end

I've told you that I hate the phone
And that was not a lie
But having you on the other end
Has become a favorite way
To let the time go by

It's honestly a little scary
To feel like I could fall
Because I'd rather have you be my friend
Than to not have you at all

I'm really not even sure
Of what I'm trying to say
I just needed you to know
That I'm feeling this way

I've always fed off the other person
In relationships before
But trying to figure out what's on your mind
Is really quite a chore

I feel as though I'm repeting myself
In this gamble of a poem
All I ask, if you've feelings for me
That you kindly show 'em

You know that I'm attracted to you
In so many different ways
And I want to continue to spend time with you
Until the end of days

This poem is no proposal
I just need to know
The extent in which you feel for me
And should I let these feelings grow.

Thank you kindly Startime, it didn't work out as I had planned at the time, but it all worked out in the end.

Nothing like writing someone a heartfelt letter or poem and having little to know responce whatsoever. Unfortunately this has happened to me several times in my life.
Which is why I am so grateful for you folks. =)

Your comments and replies mean a lot to me, and I thank you.
