To some one that cares (from someone that cares) .

To someone that cares,
I write to you because,
I can’t take this agony inside of me,
I want to scream .
To know I can never have,
The one thing I live for,
It’s destroying me,
I can’t take feeling this way .
Why do I bother ?
Exercise ?
Looking good ?
I do it all for one reason .
No more exercise,
No more looking good,
No more washing or eating or living,
I did them all for her .
How can I carry on ?
Knowing I’m her soul mate,
Yet we can’t be together ?
Not now,
Not tomorrow,
Not ever .
I’d give her anything,
Everything if she asked,
Because I know I love her,
‘How’d do you know’ I hear you ask?
Well I’m not sure,
I’ve seen it in films,
Heard it all before,
They always say that you can feel it,
Deep inside your core .
Their name can make you sigh,
Your knees go week,
You get lost in their eyes,
You just can’t even speak .
Every time I see her,
My heart just skips a beat,
I get so nervous,
Looking into her eyes…
So dark;
So deep;
So sweet .
I’ve never felt this way before,
I’ve felt fire,
But I’ve never been this sure .
Now how can I go on,
Knowing I’ve had my one chance,
To be happy ?
My one chance at joy,
No one else can make me happy,
No woman, girl or boy .
She made me smile,
She could heel all my pain,
I could make her feel the same;
The only problem is my efforts all in vain .
Why do I bother,
I only need one try,
But I can never have it,
Cause my part of her’s a lie .
Why do I bother ?
Why do I love,
Or lose,
Or cry,
Why do I even bother,
Why do I even try ?
I just don’t care anymore,
I’m gonna stop this bull ****,
I can never have her,
I may as well just quit .
I want her,
I need her,
She can make my heart feel real,
I want to grow old with her .
Hide her from a vicious world,
I want to share the love I feel .
But I just can’t give it up,
The feeling I have’s to strong,
I will try no matter what,
Forever’s not that long .
I only ask this one thing,
And that is let me try,
Let me love;
And Live;
And for god’s sake let me die .

the yearning for love evokes all kinds of emotions and you captured them so well in this well written but sad poem - thanks Paul
