2 Steps Away

by Christina pisces - Not entered

I lay awake dreaming
Of things not yet mine
Feelings I have
Something I want
.
It so far out of reach
Even though I tried to grab it
It moves farther away
Harder to see
.
In a way it's teasing me
Tormenting my heart
Taking one step forward
Then 2 steps away
.
Why do I want what is not mine
Why do I feel or think these thoughts
My heart is filled with loved
But empty, sad
.
Again I reach out
I tried to take what is not mine
Even though I pray it was mine
It slips out of my hand
And takes 2 steps away

Reason for writing:

    I wrote this poem because of a guy I liked, and how I felt
what he was doing to me.
