I sat there and thought...
You entered right in
I love you so much
Don't know what you did to win
The space in my heart
Was put up for sale
Had given up hope
Any love had grown pale
You walked into my life
At my invitation
When I first fell
I wanted to give you initiation
To see if you're worthy
Of the feelings I'd forgotten
I was able to feel
I started to cry
Knowing I couldn't hold you
Not knowing if you miss me
The way I miss you
The hurt is too much
Bittersweet in its taste
Wouldn't trade it for anything
Would like it to make haste
My love for you scares me
Get out of my head
I can't stop thinking about you
You'd think you were the first man
I've ever loved
The way I keep carrying on over you
They say there's only one man worth my tears
You're that one man
It's been a bad night
Maybe I'm just tired
But I really do love you
So much that it hurts.

Hopelessly in love

You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Rhonda, thank you for sharing!

boy can I relate to this! I'm still carrying on over my first love! It has faded a lot with time though. Remember to always love yourself first and true love and happiness will be yours (hugs)

Indeed I understand! I enjoyed the write. Nicely done Sky.

Perhaps a bit of spacing spreading out? It seemed a very large chuck of verse at one time. IMHO.

It sounds as if someone has stolen your heart. Nicely penned, Skyfire.

This is a very nice piece that would stand better broken up with some stanzas. It gives the reader a moment to feel each section of this great poem.

Blessings in the love that will bring us the words to bless each other with in a lifetime.

It's been a bad night
Maybe I'm just tired
But I really do love you
So much that it hurts.

Had a few nights like that, myself.  Love the title, too.

I just wanted to say thank you for all your kind words I realise there is absolutely no form or sense at all to this poem; I was just writing... I don't tend to think about form and rythm and things like that when I hurt like that. Thanks again!

Hopelessly in love
