I Tried

Looking into your eyes
I feel a smile start to rise
How do I tell you how I feel
I fool myself and say it's not big deal
My feelings deep down inside
Will never change no matter how hard I try
You mean a lot to me
I wish you could only see
I try to show you every day
But you seem to look the other way
I can't tell if you really care
But asking you do I dare
I don't want to be rejected or even be denied
But atleast then I could say I TRIED

Hi Poetry Princess,
I can't believe that this was at the bottom of the page with no replies. This is my first time by your place, I'm going to read the other poem that you have written.

This is really a heartfelt poem you have written for us...your emotions spill for this piece.  Thank you for sharing

my love is my inspiration
perception of this poem
is your interpretation"
