Glass

I see you in a world so beautiful
The sun shines and the sky is blue
But the best thing about this world is
That it contains something wonderful, you

I want to join this place
This beautiful, wonderful place
It looks so easy to join you
And kiss your sweet face

But when I try to join you
I just bounce back into despair
Because we are separated by glass
Oh God, will I ever get there?

There to that beautiful paradise
Will I ever get where you are?
I try to get there, and pound on the glass
But it’s just so, so hard

The glass is so thin, and easily broken
But I can’t bring myself to say
The words to tell you exactly how I feel
I guess I won’t be with you today

Finally, I get tired of waiting
And just watching you though glass
I take my courage and break through
And we are together at last

But then I awake and find
That all this was a dream, but still true
Because I watch you from behind glass
Much too afraid to break though

But maybe someday, I will find my courage
And break through the pane of glass
That keeps us so far apart
And we will be together at last

Hey......  GREAT JOB! For a moment, there in the sixth stanza I thought you really finely told that guy you like your feelings about him. But hey.... maybe another day.  you did a great job.  It's just to bad that one guy doesn’t know what he is missing. But then again.... at least I know.!  Awesome

Hey LoveBug,
This is a wonderful poem, I love how you used the glass as an obsticale I could really picture your trial and trying to get the courage to tell how you feel. Your a wonderful poet! And I hope you get the courage to tell this person how you feel!
