I Can't Be Yours

by LostWords   Sep 9, 2012


There is no flaw in two,
as a lily among brambles
so is my love with you.

Draw me close; let us run.
How beautiful is your love,
my other one.

On my bed by night I sought.
I am beyond sick with love
but found him naught.

No matter how loud I scream,
anxiety humming birds come
with a beautiful growl for peace.

Because my perfect one is not a he.
Instead, she is the girl of my dreams.

    Hey girl, I dont think that a someone should be called names just because she is expressing her thoughts. I think this is flowing with genuine emotions and who cares what other people think. Our poems are outlets for us to vent our frustrations and no one should take that away from us. So carry on writing and this is a nice poem!

    I totally feel this. I'm wondering what you meant by your comment? I don't think you need to be labeled by your writing. When you feel something like this being able to put it into words is always hard, yet it feels like a pull being lifted once you are finished. I think it was well written (:
