Yes...

I love you.

But how can you
love someone that
doesn't want your love?

You told me not to say
I love you.

If I can't say it
how can I do it?

If I can't do it
how will my love grow
and where is my love to go?

If it has no where to go,
no way to express itself,
won't it wither up and die
on the vine?

Yes...I love you.
But only if you
are wanting to
be mine.

SweetieJames, there's something about your poem that tugs at my heartstrings and I guess it's got2deal with a person putting up walls of defence so2speak and we all know how2proceed when these things come our way we can't go under em, we can't go over em, we can't go around em and we can't go thru em BUT what we can do is be patient N understanding and eventually the walls will come tumbling...
Hugs2uPoetFriend and thanx4a great read2nite

James,

Sometimes the people worth loving aren't always easy to love!
She will come around!

bittersweet penned, love isn't always easy, especially if there are walls in front.
