here i am...oops, i'm gone

Submitted by Paula J on Sat, 07/12/2008 - 02:30

I stand and stare
but you don't see me at all
can't you see me,
I'm right here, before you
Don't you see into my eyes,
seeing the love?

Don't do this to me any longer,
I can't take it,
My heart is breaking.
What is it gunna take for
you to see me?

I see you smile my way,
one time my heart woulda jumped
but now I don't care.
You waited too long,
now you can't have me.

How does it feel on that end?
Waiting to receive a smile, a word,
standing so near, yet I'm so far.
Is your heart breaking,
do you regret evading me?

Paula, you are so very creative! I can relate to everything you write! Except for the part where then she doesn't want him. If your my crush you could say you really didn't like me and I'd still love you but just not as openly! :)

well, the girl in the poem is over the guy, so...i had fun writing it. i was sitting on my bed, listening to my sister brush her teeth (lol), and started thinking of the first line.
