Is this love? (maybe not)

by Lesslovedthanloathed   Sep 18, 2008


Behind each of my smiles
Each glance, each tear
Lurked feelings that remain unseen.
What's the difference between love and fear
When there's no clear line in between?

Whats this feeling that I feel?
When I don't want you to see me cry,
When I'm feeling down and want to die,
When I've got no wings yet trying to fly,
These feelings that keep growing inside.

It makes me nauseas and sick inside,
I scream but no voice comes out.
Deep down somewhere in my gut,
For some unknown reason,
I know seeing you will make my pain go away.

I don't know when it started but
You're the reason for my suffering.
I hate it when you're around me,
But I'd rather that than a day without you.
How do you explain this feeling?

Where do I start,
I'm lost for meaning,
The world keeps spinning,
But if you weren't here
I'm afraid it might stop.

I'm short of breath,
I can't speak clearly.
When you're around
I get this feeling
My head is in the clouds.

    This poem was really good with a great topic. Although the rhyming wasn't forced, it was a little cliche. And the flow was shaky at some points. But otherwise this poem was brilliant. Great word usage... keep it up! 5/5

    Omgosh. I really love this piece. I feel this exact same wayy all the time. And I don't get it either! And I'm the type of person who hates to feel lost and confused. "/ This is actually how I've been feeling lately, quite often too, and I don't know how to make it go away..

    "When I've got no wings yet trying to fly,"
    "For some unknown reason,
    I know seeing you will make my pain go away."

    I absolutely loved those lines. :] 5/5
