“I love you,” three words they are,
but the distance between before and after is far.
Before good friends we were to each other,
after I feel we are drifting apart from one another.

Friends you struggle to remain,
dancing in this endless game.
How can friends we be,
if secrets we must keep.

You think you love him but you don’t tell me;
you are afraid that that knowledge would hurt me.
I like to think I am strong enough to be over you,
but I just can’t seem to get the power to

Give this love I have for you to someone else,
feel for them what for you I have felt.
My love for you was very strong,
my recovery will be very long.

When I am near you pain feel I may,
to be so close yet so far away.
But near you I want to be all the same
for if you need me I wish to remain.

As a friend or more I try not to care,
as long as I can be there.
Wish to love you I still do,
to always be able to help you,


For I am still very much in love with you.

****************************************
I wrote this about a girl I am still very much in love with, even after she rejected me. I AM hopeless, aren't I?  What can I say, I still want to be there for her, even if I receive nothing in return.




Love will come and love will go, but friends are forever (usually).

Don't say you're hopeless... Cause you're not... to not be over someone doesnt show weak character, it shows you trust yourself enough to let someone else love you... And not getting over someone right away means you're clinging to the thought that there will/might be a "you" again... and thats not BAD either... in good time you'll get her back/get over her...

Awww, no I understand what you mean, and you're not hopeless. Just give it time, one of two things are garaunteed to happen. she will get over herself and realize that she wants to be with you still, or you will get over yourself, and realize you need to move on. Either way, it'll take a while to heal your broken heart. Nice read!

Nice poem. I've been there man and it is very hard. Stick through it cause most times it works out for the better.

"My love for you was very strong,
my recovery will be very long."

Loved those lines. Thought the idea behind the poem is a sad, emotion-filled subject to write about...But when you began writing it, I think you tried a bit too hard to rhyme in some areas. Nice write all the same though, hope to see more. And hope that girl comes around...

You wouldn't worry about what people thought about you if you knew how seldom they did.
