I feel like a volcano ready to explode. He liked me, I was the one he wanted to hold. This is not the way it was supposed to be. I was too scared to express my feelings, Now he has her. She is the one he looks at with a smile on his face. She is the one he charms, But I should be the one he holds in his arms. I feel like I'm hanging onto a limb, I am the one who should be standing beside him. I am the one who should be holding his hand. I had a chance to have him but he slipped through my fingers like sand. When he looks at me, I look the other way. I try to pretend it doesn't bother me. I look into his eyes and can't hide it anymore. He knows how I feel, he's the one I adore. He looks at me with such a sweet face And asks if we can talk in a quiet place. I took his hand and walked through the crowd. Then he looked into my eyes and gave me a kiss. No moment in my life was as perfect as this. I put my hands to my face and wanted to cry, Then I looked up, there she was with tears in her eyes. As she turned to run, he looked at me with a sigh. Then bolted after her, I felt like I was going to die. Then as I started to walk the other way I heard a voice behind me "Please stay" As he took my hand, he said that he told her they were through. Then he looked at me and "I love you!" I am the one.
Reason for writing:
I just love poetry. Instead of writing in a diary I like to express my feelings through poetry.
