The Vail Of Poets

Observer From Behind

Lust and greed course the scheme

The scheme that dictates the game of spirits

That love is a one way path to play

I feel sick and broken, don't really fit in here 

In the scheme of love and fear

Someone likes your looks, they think you're hot  

Someone likes your smiles, they think you're fine 

Another person thinks you're friendly

They all ponder you lovely

But I just like you I really don't know why

I could watch you for hours, won't deny that

Get happy just by seeing you pass by

Feel troubled when you withdraw 

I watch you sometimes

Not in a creepy way though

I stare when you're near

And wish I would speak to you

Observe from behind a curtain

The love that will never be

I'm in love with someone

Who's in love with someone

And that someone will never be me

Story/POV: (Long story short, I've never been in love in my life. However I've seen people be, and as a writer I must admit it's hard to describe things you never feel) The truth is that I don't like you romantically, maybe I find you attractive or maybe you're friendly. I really don't know and it's hard to explain this in a simple way and every time I try I only confuse my feelings more. But if I know something it is that I like to look at you, sometimes I can stop paying attention to what is happening around me when I am talking to you. But I know that you could never like me back and I know that I should give up this feeling that the more I think that it is dead it reappears. It's like I wanted to hate you but it was impossible. This is sincere, the most sincere that I will ever be with my feelings. The most sincere I know to be.
