"They say 'Life's two steps forward and one step back' - But what if I tripped and fell down the whole flight of stairs?"


I know I love you,
But more than my friend?
Sometimes I lie in bed at night,
while you're trapped inside my head.
I've always missed you,
and wanted to be closer.
Sometimes I think I got my way,
the more that we grow older.
You tempt me,
and I don't feel the guilt.
Sometimes I wonder why that is;
from the friendship we have built.
I dream of you,
and wake up with a smile.
Sometimes I close my eyes again,
just to keep it for a while.

I talk to you,
and feel sad when you hang up.
Sometimes I stall to keep you on;
I can never have enough.
I love you.
Whether it be right or wrong.
Always will I think of you,
and tomorrow will I long.

Wow, this was beautiful. You conveyed the emotions perfectly, and I know exactly how you feel from a similar situation. Since you know who this is, you should explain this more to me when you get a chance. P: Great job. I still marvel at your wonderous writing abilities.

You know what I just realized? Shivanie and Leilani rhyme perfectly, and nothing I've ever found rhymes with my name. :D

Mine knows. That's not the problem for me. Maybe you should tell him, sweetheart.

Thank you. This poem was filled with so much passion...but it's raw emotion I've kept inside for a long time. Actually, I wasn't going to post this.
