Some nights I feel that I am giving my love
to someone who doesn't really care
I pour my heart out to her
and let her know how much I care
how beautiful she is
how wonderful she is
how much she means to me
but I wonder if the love I speak of
is falling on deaf ears
I see her smile and I think it's alright
I look into her eyes and see the beauty within
but no matter how happy I am
I always wonder if she really cares
she won my heart but I am worried
that she will discard it
like a piece of garbage, unloved and unwanted
I love her like anyone I ever have before
but I don't know if she feels the same


 To find love is to know true happiness... to lose love is to lose everything

That's one of the chances that we take when we fall in love. We just have to hope for the best.

What a touching poem...  I hope the subject returns your feelings and lets you know soon..

 MAY THE ROAD RISE TO MEET YOU,
MAY THE WIND BE ALWAYS AT YOUR BACK
MAY THE SUN SHINE UPON YOUR FACE
THE RAINS FALL SOFT UPON YOUR FIELDS
AND, UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN,
MAY GOD HOLD YOU IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND

This is just so touching, you know I am actually in the same situation as you do...

she is living in my dreams
I am never feeling alone
my love tenderly speaks
to her sweet little smile

Well, I can fully understand your feeling of your love being 'discarded' and ignored, either willfully or unsuspectingly. But her happiness is always reflected in you. As long as she is there living happily, your life should also have meaning.

Lovely poem, Lonely Shadow.  Why don't you try asking her how she feels--or better yet--give send her this poem.

There is a Power greater than myself who Loves me Exactly as I am.

Life is:
A mystery, Unfold it.
A journey, Walk it.
Painful, Endure it.
Beautiful, See it.
A joke, Laugh at it.
A song, Sing it.
A flower, Smell it.
Wonderful, Enjoy it.
A Candle, Light it.
Precious, Don't waste it.
A gift, Open it.
Love, Give it.
Unlimited, Go for it
Light, Shine in it.


 Your failures in life come from not realizing your nearness to success when you give up.
-Yoruba Proverb
