I never fell for you down a flight of stairs purposely,
Neither did I develop my emotions the same way.
You showed me you-
The real you;
One you concealed from everyone else
Yet you gave me the chance.
Do you know how honoured I felt?
Being trusted with something so dear-
Feelings exposed to me without hesitation,
You listened to me
When nobody else was there.
But I hid things from you because I hated feeling vulnerable;
I did try to give my all.
To not break you emotionally or physically.
I felt for you what you felt for me,
We two were separate but together there was we.
The three words I dreaded was something you said,
Without shame of being seen as weak.
Your personality motivated me to be the best I could be.
Do you remember March 16?-
Our first interaction was as if we knew each other;
Not physically but spiritually we were connected.
I got closed to you, though I kept you at arms length-
Loving every minute of our time,
I climbed a cliff in hopes of not feeling what you felt for me
Yet it never seemed to work.
Now I'm sitting, writing about what we were like and what we could've been.
Could we have spent immortality together?
Yes!
But you broke me before you left and I'm the reason.
You had something for me which you expressed thousands of times.
I was scared-
To let someone in, in fear of what my consequences would've been but now I regret it!
I should've said what I felt,
Express them like there's no tomorrow.
The tomorrow that came was the same tomorrow you left me -
Hating myself for being foolish,
Broken.

Emotions
PoetryI'm just a girl who feels so many emotions due to constant events in my life😖. Never exactly sure how to feel or act and be myself, self conscious of how others see me😓. Poetry is art and art works are as calming as rain. Writing gives me peace...
