To Be In Love With You
By RoseTheBrokenHearted
It's like I am trapped inside a box,
And I can barely move.
This is what it feels like,
To be in love with you.
One day you love me,
and you're not very far,
Other days,
I wonder where you are.
It's like we're running in circles,
As we're clouded in doubt.
This is what it feels like,
To be in love with you.
Nights were short,
and our days were long,
This is the story,
that wrote out our song.
You watched the hurt
that came from your lies,
And as you talked to me that night,
you cried.
The first time your walls came down,
And you had let me in,
That's what it feels like,
To be in love with you.

Amazing. This piece really touched me. I understand exactly where you are coming from and can feel your grief for the one that is right there, but not there at all too. Thank you

Oh, God, this poem gives me a feeling like... I don't know how else to describe it but "shitty". Yeah, it gives me a "shitty" feeling. That's NOT to say the poem is shitty- It's actually freakin' fantastic. The image I get while reading it, though, is off this cold, distant faux-lover who can't seem to treat the speaker with the respect and affection they deserve. THAT's why I get a "shitty" feeling from it... And it's really awesome that you were able to conjure that feeling in me.

That is precisely how it is, and it's not that he is a shitty person, but his actions because of someone else is what makes it shitty. But thank you so much for such wonderful feedback!

Good perspective poetry here and I can feel the subject. The tone is somber and somewhat seductive if that makes sense. I enjoyed this and it kept my attention throughout. Nice work.

Pretty decent flow. The lines "That's what it feels like, to be in love with you" almost have a singsong feel when I read them.

The singsong feel is actually what I was going for, but thank you much.
