Poetry For The Broken

unrequited love

I like you I say but I know that is far from the truth because honestly I am head-over-heels in love with you
You didn't need to say anything because I could see your face fall already it wasn't something you wanted to hear
I was just merely a friend to you after all
I really am too cowardly to hear you say the words that would hurt too deep so I smile a sad smile and run
I don't want to hear it or see you look at me with pity
But it's okay since it's fair now I hurt him you hurt me it's the circle of life
So it's okay
Was it perhaps the karma for not loving him
I understand how you feel honestly so I won't push you to talk
I wish you at least run after me but you don't that would have at least fooled me that you cared a little but you don't but it's okay
I had weighed every possible outcome but it still hurt even tho I prepared for this
All those little attention you showed had gotten to my head and perhaps I hoped there was little a chance you love me too but it's just me over thinking everything you do
