Distance

by Emma from the Netherlands   May 29, 2012


You're so many miles away from me
I can't just go to you to see you
Wish you were closer, that's how I want it to be
I've only seen you once
We have talked 'till late at night
Now we've been e-mailing for months
It felt right, being by your side
How am I going to say
That you make me feel this way?
Should I actually let you know?
Or should I hold it inside me to not waste what we have
Because I don't want to lose you or let you go...

It's hard to not know how you feel about me
And it's hard not to tell how I feel about you
I have to pretend I don't like you in that way, while I do...
Thinking about me liking you more than you like me is a frustrating thought
Those thoughts make me feel miserable and sad a lot
I save all the pictures you send
Do you save mine too?
I save all your e-mails
I'm not sure if you do, probably too good to be true
I hope you do, I wish you do
And that I'm the only one for you
But you are looking pretty fine
So all the girls probably stand in line
And if you're interested too
Then what and who am I to you?
You're probably fine with the situation as it is...
Staying in touch with me, but also able to do whatever you want
That's why I think you want to leave it like this
Nothing that makes us really bond
Usually I never meet great guys
But then there was you
I finally finally met someone, so so nice

It's not fair
You're all the way over there
I'm in another country, all the way over here
You meeting another girl is my biggest fear
I truly hope that one day there will be more between us
That you will be more serious
That you'll realize that a lot of other girls are meaningless
And that you will confess
That you'll see us have a future together
So that I never have to wonder whether...
That would be so much better...

    It's really hard to love someone when the person is far away, and that fear we have, specially in this case when the person you love doesn't know this feeling you have.
    I loved the poem, sad story but really beautiful.

    5/5
