Love In Vain

I've said this all to you before

That I have loved and adored you since day one

And I couldn't love you more,

If you were to ever love me back I would have won

You ask how and why I love you so,

But if I were to explain

You would still not believe even though you now know.

My affections are in vain

I pretend to ignore it's pain

The pain I feel when you talk about someone else

Or someone who has left you drained

But for you I will bottle my feelings in myself

And I will pray, though I am not religious

Pray for you to one day feel the same

Though I know it may be ridiculous

Perhaps even, what's the word? Insane?

Yes that's perfect for my brain

Insane, crazy, delusional, or maybe just naive

Hopeful that one day my love won't be restrained

It makes no sense, but I cannot help but feel aggrieved

Aggreived by my own mind

For I have allowed myself to have this one sided feeling

And yet it is so hard to find

A reason to stop my love from reeling
