You Love Me?

by Hurtingsoul   Nov 21, 2008


I look straight into those eyes
I can almost read your soul
But the walls that you hold.....
I can never get in

I look at that smile of yours
I can almost feel the joy emanating from them
But I realize
It's a smile that's forged
I can never make you happy

I feel your heart pump beneath my touch
Almost human,
Locked up begging for release
You refuse!
I can never be the key

I feel your breath against my neck
Almost lukewarm, it sends shivers down my spine
You're too cold
I can never be your blanket

What's the point?

Why do you love me?

Why should I love you?!

You never let me in
You never receive my bliss
You never let me be the key
You never let me warm you up

Do you even need me?

Sometimes I feel your body pressed against mine
Never soft never inviting
Just rigid and tight
Yet.
I move away, and you hold me down
Mixed signals cant be this complicated....right?

I hear those three words coming from your mouth
What do they mean?
What is this foreign language that you speak?
You love me, but its not the same.....

    Well, I surely love this poem. I loved the metaphors you used and how you worded them perfectly. The first stanza, last two lines could be reworded a bit. They're kind of throwing the flow off. Other than that you have a wonderful poem here, well written. I had naturally thought that due to the short/long line changes that it would be off in flow, but it wasn't at all. It was well written and pieced together. Best poem of yours, by far.
