For him, My Ignorant Love

By lockupthedoors

 So close then ripped away

Don’t let him see my tears

Falling so fast there are flames

Loved him in secret for years

 

When I’m with you I feel like light

Then you stole away everything

You broke me down took my height

Why would you do this to me

 

Touching, though nothing you feel

So in love, you never knew

Someone wake me, this can’t be real

Someone wake me, this can’t be true

 

I love him forever, I love him for life

He should be mine, but he doesn’t know

I am a damsel, but he’s not my knight

So much of my heart’s not allowed to show

 

The power felt when we meet eyes

But then you have to look away

Is there truth to your love lies

I die a little more each day

 

I am broken down so small

I am crushed like chalk

I am forced to nothing at all

I am not able to talk

 

God, I feel so damaged here

I’m in pain, unable to breath

In this labyrinth I’m trapped in fear

I’ll untangle this web I weave

 

His ignorance would be the death of me

But I never receive such pleasantries

Author's Note:

In 7th grade I liked a newboy named Alex. Now in 9th grade I'm in love with him, but he doesn't know it. This morning my friend was trying to get him to like me when she came back with the news he had a girlfriend. I died a little. This is for you Alex.

    Don't be in such a hurry, even if your friends are telling magical stories, because that is what they are. You are at the age of experimentation and the real you needs a chance to surface, so take it slow and easy. The ocean is wide with many fish inside, cheers!
