okay, so this poem means a lot to me. I wrote it about two years ago, but I still love it with every ounce of love there is, lol. There are a lot of things in this poem that still apply to me today, and i've called on it millions of times to explain my feelings about a boy to someone before..but hey, its a classic, right? Its amazing how many girls this poem applies to. Inclucding myself.


I've been caught swimming in his eyes again.
Holding my heart so it doesn't break in his presence.
I've been known to have to steady my breathing at his smile,
as my own returns with red cheeks.
As the subject of my never ending sentences, he calls upon pauses that
should not be there.
As my friend, he shares.
His heart cannot mention my name.
While my heart can only scream his.
I've been seen caressing his skin with my gaze.
Memorizing his shape.
I've dreamt of how his lips round his words.
As I replace friendship with love.
My heart hangs heavy when I hear his voice.
My pulse races with his scent.
As he walks past, her on his arm.
Unlike any of the others, he kills me and keeps me alive.
