A Letter I Can Never Send

Caught up in your trap that enthralls me once again.
You seem so perfect for me that I don�t want to just be a friend
I am so comfortable, so free, you remind me how to breathe
I feel so close I could cry, but you keep me out of reach.
You tell me things that burn, the brutal, honest truth
But even when your words scar, you are there to soothe
Not in that way, though, not in the way that I seek
For I am not the girl you see when you close your eyes and blink.
You dream of that girl, the one I see through green eyes
She has the glow I envy, no flaws she needs to disguise
Why her? Why not me? I can�t help but question
But I can easily see why with all her glorious intentions.
She holds such beauty in your presence and tramples on your dreams
While I sit there and wonder if she�s as grand as you make her seem
I tried so hard for you to want only me
Change my hair, change my clothes and then maybe you�ll see
You enter a room and I can�t help but stare
But you see right through, you�re not even aware
You tell me I�m pretty, but who else hears your lies?
Am I just one of the others that you secretly despise?
It�s far from easy to tell you all of this
Especially with everything I�ve told you, but I cannot dismiss
What I�m truly thinking when you tell me what you think
Because you�re the one I think of when I close my eyes and blink
And I know how much you like her, but this I can�t ignore
Because I like you equally, and if not maybe more
And this poem that I�ve written still is falling short
Of all the things I feel and how much I need your support
Please try to understand, and don�t get mad or leave
I�m not trying to talk you into liking me, or have something up my sleeve
Just know how much I like you, no matter what I�ve said before,
And don�t leave me alone either, because that�d hurt even more
I�m sorry I�m not enough, it�s just so hard to let go
And I�m not sure I can, I only want you to know
I�ve hidden how much it hurts each time I see your face
And I know what happened before is still, to you, a mistake
But you won�t ever know even if I told it all
How much it killed me inside and how hard it made me fall
And now, a year later, when I�ve done my best to change
I can�t help but wonder, if I�m still not in your range
It seems pointless and silly, so immature
But maybe telling this to you can be the only cure.
Tell me what you think of me now that you�ve read my thoughts
Don�t tell me I�m just being stupid, that you�re not worth this cost
Because I like you so much and it�s not something I can neglect
And I�m sorry I couldn�t say this, but if I had I would forget
All the things I needed to say and the words to say it right
Please tell me I did the right thing, I don�t want to have more to write

It's important to express how you feel, and I say absolutely send the letter. But if he is too blind to see a good thing standing right there, it's his loss. Send it along to him, my best wishes to you! Hope it works out!
Truly,
-V.S. |
