A poem to define one-sided love that has lasted so long and now wants to come out to reveal the feelings hiding within it.
Eight years ago,
I saw him, his eyes,
Filled with curiosity
Wondering who he is
A stranger to a friend,
A bond with no expectations,
Eight years ago I found him
Found the one I liked
But, I left
Without saying goodbye
Without saying a word
About my feelings
Then began a saga—
A saga of one-sided love
Eight years of one love
Remaining in one place
A glistening in my eyes
For eight years,
An endless questioning
A battle to end
This one-sided love
In the last eight years
Thoughts came to paper
His eyes haunting my heart
Burning all my forests of love
I will never love another.
Agonized internally,
Furious,
With this one-sided love
With no answers
The last eight years,
Spent with dialogue of the heart
Spent in desperation of an answer
The last eight years
Seemed so long
But were so short
Dwelling in this one-sided love
Never wanted to wait
Never needed to wait
But I unknowingly waited
The last eight years I waited
But this wait won’t end
Leaving me in a deep dark well
With the thought
To speak the truth of my heart
I left it all eight years ago,
I never waited for him
Because he won’t come
But I waited for this love to end
The last eight years,
spent alone In love
Heartbroken
Shattered
In a million pieces of unknown
Lost in a crowd
Waiting for it to end
For this love to end.
