“what I want, but can’t have”

When I near you
Why do you turn away?
I only want to hold you
To hold you forever and always

When I talk with you
Why do you scream and yell?
I only want to say
To say that I love you

When others are there
Why do I feel as though you don’t want me
I only want to be there
To be there for you

When I want to be with you
When I want to hold you
When I want love you
Why do I feel as though….
As though you don’t want me here

Ok just so you all know this poem wasn't written about me. but rather for a friend of mine who is have trouble with his g/f right now.

It's too bad I'm not as wonderful a person as people say I am, because the world could use a few people like that.

I've learned that even when you

Ooh ouch. That must not be a fun situation for your friend.
Writing from someone else's perspective is difficult to accomplish, you did so nicely. Well done.

This was good. Sorry about the bad times. Hope all goes well.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Your friend needs to find a girl that isnt gonna treat him this way. I know Im not perfect with my boyfriend but you shouldnt act like that if you care about someone.

That's o sad.... But Erin's right, he should find a girl who'll appreciate him. the poem itself is ok, the situation caught my eye.
