Imagination Unlocked

You're not whom I need

I'm telling you the truth,
Just believe me, please.
Just believe in what I feel
And that is not something you expect.
I'm different you see,
I think differently.
Believe me already, please.
Your unwavering attention
Is what I need
To keep myself going.
I'll send you letters
And meet you whenever you want,
But I cannot give more.
Believe me when I say
That I don't want to see you get hurt,
For even though you're nice,
You're not everything to me.
My heart belongs to someone else,
Someone far away.
I like the attention you give me,
I love how you make me laugh,
But you're not the one I want
To spend the rest of my life with.
Believe me,
This is for our own good.
Ask me anything you know about
And you'll realise that I know nothing
Apart from Mozart and Beethoven,
Whom you've probably never even heard of.
Have you ever read a book written by Hardy or Austen?
Have you ever thought about travelling throughout the country?
You're unidirectional.
You always get what you want
Because you're good at it,
Because you're smart.
But that's not what I want.
You want me,
You've told me so a thousand times,
But that'll never happen.
It's not you whom I want,
Rather it's the attention you shower upon me,
For I've never received so much before.
You're nice, really;
I'll help you in any way I can,
You have a place in my heart,
Just not at the centre.
It flatters me that a person,
So academically smart, so popular,
Will leave everything else behind
Just so that he could spend time with me
And that is precisely why
I can never give you my heart.
I'll just be friends with you
These remaining few months.
Stay away for your own good,
Else you'll get seriously hurt.
Believe me
Please.
Or don't.
Either way,
I'll do my part
And keep you at bay.

Hey guys! Sorry for such a late update. I was quite busy with my studies for a while. But I hope this poem makes up for it. It's actually inspired from an anime called Scum's Wish. It's an interesting anime where the girl desperately seeks attention from a guy because she can't spend her life with the one she loves. I found the story to be quite intriguing and watching that while simultaneously listening to an extraordinary instrumental called "The Last Story" facilitated the creative cells in my brain and resulted in this poem :D
Alright. With this, I declare the termination of Imagination Unlocked. In no way am I giving up on writing poems, I believe it's inherent but I need some time off writing currently. I need to catch up on some novels, movies and anime and I want to spend as much of this limited time as possible with my family before I return to my University.
Thank you everyone for reading my poems, voting for me, giving enormous support that encouraged me daily and made me pour my heart out through verse. My followers have been so supportive, I couldn't thank them enough, I can just say that I love you all. I hope you keep reading my future works as well and give feedback.
Thank you.
