Loving you has been the hardest thing to do
Not knowing if you are being honest
Not knowing if you are being true..

Wondering if what you feel...
Is coming from the heart
Are you looking for a way out?
Or are you looking for a fresh start?!

Words out of your mouth convey sincerity
But actions speak louder than words
As you have plainly shown me...

Your eyes filled with honesty
Your mind being confused
Your heart feeling lonely
I'm feeling used...

When will you face reality?
Is it so hard to see?
Is your mask of confusion
blinding the sight of me?

So take your time...if you must
Cause I'm here for the taking
But don't take too long...
Because I won't stand around waiting!

Great Poem Virgo,

I loved the end:

So take your time...if you must
Cause I'm here for the taking
But don't take too long...
Because I won't stand around waiting!

good don't wait, waiting only consumes time..time that you could be using for something more important to yourselt and your heart.



 The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship."

--Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Loving you has been the hardest thing to do
Not knowing if you are being honest
Not knowing if you are being true"

liked this one a lot...
good work


 If all was light...then I would have never learnt the dark...from which such truth evolves
from which evolves the light...

I especially liked the last four lines..it shows that the other person is the confused one...you are seeing everything very clear.

This is a great poem. This sounds like me  

~~~~~
Loving you has been the hardest thing to do
Not knowing if you are being honest
Not knowing if you are being true..
Wondering if what you feel...
Is coming from the heart
Are you looking for a way out?
Or are you looking for a fresh start?!

Words out of your mouth convey sincerity
But actions speak louder than words
As you have plainly shown me...

~~~~~~

I love it good job explaining these feelings.

thank you all for your response on my poem...I didn't realize it would hit so close  to home for so many people.  Again, thank you for your support.

Wow - great poem.  Not an enviable position to be in at all, though.  Bet that confusion would disappear quick if you stopped waiting... (or at least appeared to).
