ONLY IN MY DREAMS....

If only I could look at him
without having to turn away.
I would look directly in his eyes
and he would do the same.

If only I could talk to him
and find the words to say.
I'd tell him that I love him
and he would do the same.

But this is only in my dreams,
in my dreams is where I feel safe.
I can be whoever I want to be
I can hide in my own little place.

In real life I'm lonely,
I'm longing to be loved.
The guy I've given my heart to,
hasn't returned that love.

His actions make me love him,
his words make me melt
but still his heart he has not shared,
his love I have not felt.

Does one give up all hope from here
and start to live again?
Or can I go on hoping,
for my love it does remain.

So instead of admitting defeat,
giving room for my heart to break,
I retreat back to my hiding place,
my dream where I'll feel safe.

I can be whoever I want to be
I can do whatever I please
But most of all I feel loved
And that puts my heart at ease.

I am goin through the same thing except im a guy and the girl wont return the love. It does stink!!! NOT THE POEM but the situation we are in.

If you want a tip my best tip would be to organize the poem better. Organize it into sections so the reader can get the rythm that u dictate. Other then that good work
