Why do we love? never seems to be returned we spill our friggin hearts out and get our asses burned I like and I love but no answers to recieve for you I give and live but yet I feel deceived Why is it so hard to learn how others feel? why cant they just give something to make it all seem real? You want it or you dont its not that hard to learn just think for one short minute for what does your heart yearn? If its not me just tell me I cant take this much more I need to know the story please just pick a door I'll walk through not knowing if love I've ever known but please dont lie or hurt me without the answer shown Just give it to me straight now I really need to know am I going wrong ways? my love needs to show I can no longer hide it its building fast and hard yet you never tell me in my hand I hold which card? Let me come and show you that my love is real I would never fake this my heart is free to steal "I dont know what I want" please, how can this be?? its been so long, I'm waiting... say what you feel for me If its something tell me but if its nothing, say. you just cant know how this feels please show me the right way I cant do this forever but if its there I'll wait this is all quite painful just standing at the gate. ------------------ Life is what you make of it... Not what you let it be |

Thank you for your comments and concern, Watcher and Pepper. They are greatly appreciated  I was jumping to conclusions without being sure of what I knew, but its all good now It is a "challenge" for me, and fun as well, makes me feel good to try and I hope it all works in end, one way or another. Whatever ends up though, is meant to be ------------------ Life is what you make of it... Not what you let it be |

I also felt a sense of panic, or was that my own? Very nice poem. Don't know which is worse, standing at the gate or straddling the fence. |

hehe I'm with Ohme on this...which is worse? And OUCH to that straddling the fence comment !  I really liked this....it dripped of frustration, and wow, can we all relate to that at sometime or another! Especially in relationships! This was very hearfelt and sincere - you do well with writing your negative, pleading emotion down ! I'm glad to hear all is well now. ------------------ ~~ Lift your head high - spread your "words" and fly - - poetFemmeFatale |
