Because I Love You.

by Teria   Dec 15, 2008


Because I Love You.

Hearts grow fonder by the second,
as truth becomes our word.
'Tis moments like this some people wish for,
but moments like this I somehow dread.
Your touch makes me melt,
your laughter causes pain.
And, somehow that smile...
drives me insane.

It's not a fairy tale love,
the way that we feel.
It's true, it's fake, it's even real..

We're lost in a world
of chaos and confusion,
a world that's got a hold on us,
causing hearts diffusion.

You're everything I've dreamt of,
I promise even more...
You're the part that I need,
the part I fantasy for.

But, it's not a fairy tale love,
the way that we feel.
It's true, it's fake, it's even real...

For, my heart's growing fonder,
and it's ready to bust -
this love isn't love,
if there isn't some lust.
'Tis but a facade of a dream,
that I need to be real,
it's the memories I recall,
that again I must feel.

This is not a fairy tale love,
the way that we feel.
It's true, darling.
It's fake darling.
It's even a bit real.

But, my heart cannot take this
just because I love you.
It's not what is right for us,
And, you know that too.

    This is a poem after my own heart. The poem reminds me of a C.S. Lewis book that analyzes four types God-Man parent offspring friend and romantic love

    Any that master ant of these in my opinion should aspire to transform romance to reality, easier to write about than to practice as your poem reflects

    I loved the poem. It was very well written and it is something that I can identify to. My favorite line is:
    "This love isn't love,
    if there isn't some lust"
    That line just sticks out to me. But all in all the poem had really good flow to it, and it really sounded like you were writing from your heart. I wouldn't change a thing about it.

    "You're the part that I need,
    the part I fantasy for."
    Well, This was.. amazing. One thing I would like to mention ^^^ Should it be "fantasy for" ? It seems like "the part I fantasize for" is better for this piece.. though simply a suggestion, for me, it would sound better.
    Now, the flow is very good, and none of the words seemed forced. Well done.
    I loved the thoughts that were expressed in this... the way you wrote this, was just simply amazing. For me, it seemed.. it was optimistic, pessimistic, and then realistic. I liked it, and you didn't go off subject, as I see in others.. so overall, this was .. just amazing.

    Perfect. 5/5
