For Him

by silvershoes   Jun 23, 2010


You could never know.
You want to know how I feel,
But you could not understand.
The thousand fragments of my heart
Wound up in greeting of you,
Terrible and terrified.
And I'm lost.
Lost in the music that belongs to you.
So I seem folded and cold, and distant.
But this is me with a heart that's swelling near your touch
And breaking each time you call me friend.
Friend is not what you are to me.
You are the world. My sweet, careless world,
Forgotten by time.
I've loved you long before you found your feet.
I've loved you, but little did I know,
And great is the sentiment attached to your name.
My sweet little love,
How dear your heart is.
How I long to hold it, warm it and fill it.
To creep into your arms and find you pleasantly surprised,
And unwilling to let go.
But you fail to know the truth.
You fail for my cowardice is eager and prevalent.
I fear the dejection at my doorstep,
Waiting, from whence you come
To tell me you love, but as a friend
And nothing more.

    shame!!! cause let me put in words wat i incredibly felt...reading ur poem

    And I'm lost.
    Lost in the music that belongs to you.
    >>this is the softiest...line ive seen from a poet..loved it..took me to another world..

    I've known you long before you found your feet.
    I've loved you long before you found your feet.
    I've loved you, but little did I know,
    And great is the sentiment attached to your name.

    >> my god..this stanza how sad yet Happy..yet full of LOve..

    I fear the dejection at my doorstep,
    Waiting, from whence you come
    To tell me you love, but as a friend
    And not more.
    >>> what an ending..amazingly worded
    these lines i pasted here...cause they been the lines tha left such an impact ..in my heart

    the hardest love..is the un-noticed one..wen u llove someone..and this someone tends to be a friend of yours..who u love deep enough not to reveal ur true feelings aiming to keep them, or not to lose them..

    you have expressed ur emotions in a beautiful..sad way.
    but In ur shoes..I would only pass forward my heart..for a frnd who takes not ur heart..at least takes care of it.. :)

    5/5
