Nightmares

How can I be sure
That he's the one for me
If all I can be sure of
Is what can never be

The one that i still long for
Will never have my heart
He's already broke it
Torn it all apart

Is it wrong to still have dreams
Of what I no longer want
And what to do with those dreams
All they do is taunt

If I cry I am betraying
The heart I have to hold
If I dont I can not rid me
Of the heart I must let go

A heart that was never mine
I knew this from the start
I need to lose this hold he has
I'm begging let us part

I lied I'm sorry please dont go
It's our secret I won't share
I'll hold this secret deep inside
If you'll tell me that you care

Is it right to be with a man
Who thinks he has my heart
When the truth to be told is
He only holds a part

I wish I could just wake up
And know what I should do
But the dreams go on
Starring only you

    Very good poem, flawless expression. Flow was truly sublime. The emotions of struggle and frustration were evident in this poetic story. 5/5 The I is the second stanza needs to be capitalized, everything else is perfect.
