Unrequited Tears

Does it not hurt?
The thought of falling in love I mean
Does it not scare you?
Or is it that I allow my emotions to enslave me
I want to love someone again
But how can I?
When the word's meaning does not hold a place in my memory
Yet, I still try
I try to give my trust and heart to him
A mistake that I think should flood me with regret
But I still wanted you close to me
Even after all this pain you caused me to feel
Even after the hurt and self doubt that sprung from my unrequited feelings for you
And after that came the tears that i tried and failed to fight
Fears became reality
Thus springing my own meaning for the dreaded word love, burning it's place into my mind
And the unrequited love that I had for you
Caused unrequired tears to fall because of you
