POEMS

I Can See

I can see you, but you seem to look right trough me.

Why is that?

I can see you look at her and not me.

Little do you know I love you and I can see that it will never be returned

If I could only find the words to tell you how I feel.

But now all I can do is look from this seat and see you with her and not with the one who loves you.

Outside

I stand on the outside wishing to be more like you.

People look at you and see a perfect teenager.

On the outside you are what people think you are.

Now I've gotten to know you a little more and I'm closer to the inside.

I know what you're thinking your hopes and your darkest secrets

You wish to have freedom,

Freedom such as mine.

You ache inside to tell them how you feel how you think, but that will never happen,

because of your fear of rejection.

I don't have a fear of rejection such as you I don't care

Compassion

What's happened?

What's this feeling?

I thought I had no feelings.

I must, I feel something for you.

What is it?

Take it back, I don't want it.

Make it stop.

I'm afraid, afraid of hurt, afraid that if I let

this foreign feeling in you'll hurt me.

Don't hurt me.

Promise me no more pain.

Tell me you'll never leave me and take away this

feeling, I'm starting to enjoy it.

I'd like to keep it, never give it, up never give

you up.

You're my shield, you keep harm at bay.

I'm still afraid of this feeling, only now I fear

I'll lose it.
