Unrequited Love

by Rona   Dec 27, 2006


There I was, happy as can be
My mind opened to all possibilities.
I was focused on school, family and friends.
I was concentrating on all of my abilities.

Then one day you came along,
With that gentle smile on your face
My world had stopped
And my heart began to race.

You looked at me with those eyes,
I suddenly stopped breathing.
I must have looked right at you
And wondered what I was feeling.

You came up to me and asked sweetly,
"What is your name?"
I took a moment to gather myself
What was I feeling? And was he to blame?

When I told you my name,
You smiled again.
What was I thinking?
And what was I to gain?

Now I look back at that moment
And I smile like a fool.
I had put everything on hold,
How could you be so cruel?

Back in that magical night
Of "Sight and Sound"
I wanted to tell you how I felt
Though, to my dismay, a new love you had found.

I admit, I was heart-broken that night.
As much as I want to go back to the life I once knew
I am sad to say, I cannot do that.
I cannot go back to when before I met you.

You gave me some thing to look forward to each day.
Your smile was all I had in rainy days.
Your touch wakes up my soul.
You meant so much to me in so many ways.

Though...

What am I to do now?
There is nothing left for me.
Here I am again,
Lonely as can be.

    Aww this poem was so cute. But I do have to admit the first 2 paragraphs made me want to stop reading. The rhyming seemed a little forced there. When i saw the title though I was really excited because it sounded so cool, but i was disappointed with your poem, i mean compared to the title.
