Poems 4
I wish you could spend a day as me
so you could feel all the pain I felt
I wish you could spend the night as me
So you could feel one of my teary sleepless nights
as i re-live the memories of the pain you made me feel
silently crying, tossing and turning
I want u to understand my reactions, my reasons,
realise the extent of pain that i feel in my heart and my mind
even your name is reminder, it sends memories flooding back
the picture of you in my mind tears ny heart in two
maybe I would hurt less if I knew why,
what i'd done to deserve it?
I just want you to spend one night as me
and feel the pain I felt
maybe then you'd understand.
No matter how hard I tried
You never wanted me
I'd be as sweet and understanding as possible
Listen to you and talk to you
Understanding your need to know someone
So I got to know you
But i'm still not quite there
A glimmer of hope when you kissed me
But it meant nothing to you
A mistake made under the influence
Thats all I was
Then you kissed me again
In a normal state of mind
But then you still say i'm not what u want
Can you not see i'm just waiting for you to want me?
I don't want you to be forever a dream
Can you not see how perfect I think you are?
I don't just want to love anyone,
I want to love you.
As I fall asleep in the morning light
I realise I've been awake all night
Thinking over my thoughts and fears
Silently crying and wiping my tears
If my tears were a puddle
Shining after the sun has come up
What would you see in the reflection?
Love, hate, sadness, happiness?
All mixed together like the reflection of a rainbow
glistening in the water
