I used to have this huge crush on this girl named Shazia my freshmen year of high school. I tried that entire school year to win her over with poems and such but with no success and I finally gave up. My junior of high school was her senior year, and as a surprise, I wrote her one last poem as a goodbye for she was now off to college. See what you think of this little charm. <div align=center> It’s Been So Long From the time I adored you as a young lady, I’ve grown to love you as a young woman in the present. You changed my life around years ago, And out of the blue I write to you because now you will go; Go and take on the rest of the world, As the still beautiful sweetheart I’ve always known. I nearly write in tears as I realize it’s come to an end; Tears of joy and sadness altogether because we’re still friends. I tried so hard to win your heart, But it only tore me apart, And I realize now that the less I tried, The more I would come to care for you truthfully and sincere, And perhaps the more you would appreciate how I’ve honored you these years. I’ve grown since the time my heart desired and chased you, And I silently watched you evolve rapidly before my eyes. Never had I known intellectuality and beauty so true, And now that you will depart, it makes me want to cry. Remember me not only as the foolish boy who longed for a chance, But as the young foolish boy who finally grew into a young man. I misused the term “love” so many times that it disappoints me, For now after years of experience, I know the definition much more proficiently. I’m sorry for perhaps pressuring you those months from the past, And you can say that maybe I was going at it a little too fast. I don’t blame you for anything, But I thank you for everything. I still stop in amazement when our eyes bond for even a split second of time, Because I still think of you as the beautiful silhouette, protruding from all else in my life. You’re the entity that still causes my heart to freeze up and then rapidly thump loudly. I can only smile when I see you, Knowing that you will always be you, Because if you ask me, you’re even more astounding. Never will I forget you and the memories we had years back; Maybe they weren’t that much or too grand, But it still makes me wrapped with bliss when I remember the past. You taught me a good many pointers that will surely help; A few notes on the side that will do me good, Because it’s valuable and essential to learn from someone you care for, And I care for you beyond the natural feelings of an average gentlemen. I love you, Shazia; And this time I mean it; I adore, care, and feel safe when I’m with you. You will always be that special person I tried so hard to prove myself to. Years from now, reminiscing these times with and about you will bring me joy. I’ll miss you when you’re gone. You never let me down, And that’s why my feelings for you have stayed strong. </div>
This is probably the first poem I wrote about the girl I had summer thing with. This was just when I started to realize how much I was falling for her and thinking whether or not I should tell her I like her more than friends. I met her way back in the beginning of the school year but I didn't get to know her then because she had someone already. Finally, summer came and she was single. <div align=center> Falling Again I hear your voice being carried around like the leaves in the wind. When will you appear and bring out a new sensation from within. Will I always have times when I often look back upon the past? If you show and we may be, will you love me with time and not go fast? I need to feel you like the waves of the ocean against my feet. I need to taste you like lemonade on a summer day with ease. With all my patience I await your presence in my arms each night. Pretending it’s you, I sleep while holding my pillow so tight. You may be one small person in this world, But I’m one small person and you’re my world. If only I could tell you that you’re my moon. If only I could tell you that you’re my sun. If only I could tell you how much I think about you. Maybe you wouldn’t understand me and think I’m dumb. You’ll never know how I’m falling for you day by day. I’ll never know if you think about me unless I ask if you feel the same. Maybe you have someone in your life and I don’t know. Maybe I’m rushing into things, or maybe I’m just too slow. Life’s like a chessboard. Sometimes I wonder if you’re waiting for me to make my move. Love’s like surfing on a surfboard. You don’t know when the waves will crash down on you. You make me laugh and make me smile each day. When I hear you say my name, you ignite such a flame. You cross my mind more than once a night. Seeing you is bliss to my pair of eyes. If you’re down, I do what I can to hear you laugh again. I don’t want anybody else but you with me until the end. My heart sticks to you like caramel on an apple bright red, Like ice, I want to melt when I hear you, over and over again. A smile flashes on me like lightning, And my heart beats as loud as thunder. I hate to see the day we’re fighting. I think about you so much and I wonder: Would I ever have a chance to be lucky like the ones before? Can I tell you that you look pretty all the time and you make my heart soar? They say there’s more fish in the sea, But I snagged one that I want to keep. In a dream, we dance underneath the stars so bright, And your eyes glisten off the sparkling moonlight. The temptation of your beauty makes it hard to resist. With the aroma of love filling our senses we lock lips and kiss. I hold you divinely and you glow underneath the moon. We sit down and have a candlelight dinner for two. It’s just a dream, but who says dreams don’t come true? Here I go falling again; falling for you.</div> This girl really had an effect on me. Even though we really lost touch when school began, I loved her from afar. She started falling for another boy and I told her it didn't look promising with him. In January, her sister threw a party and I got to dance with this girl to one slow song. Some time after the party, the boy broke her heart and I felt bad because I was right about my prediction that it wouldn't work between them. Here you go: <div align=center>Days Of Thought I may be a fool to like someone so young, But I can’t hold back what I feel for her. Some people can think and may just call me dumb, But they don’t know how it feels; they’re not sure. It kills me that she likes somebody else; How her face brightens when she hears his name. I wish I could have her all to myself, But I doubt if she even feels the same. To have seen her cry on that day; It was just the worst sight you could see. All the tears she let go; the pain. It’s not how I wanted things to be. How things just turned out so wrong. I should of said nothing and just kept out. That night, I just cried so long, And now, I carry around a dark cloud. I’m to blame, whether it was all true or not. It kills me, seeing her cry in my head again. I care about her so much, has she forgot? I want to be here for her, always with no end. I like her, and I just want to leave it as that, Because I know there is someone in her life. I know how it is, I really do understand, But I keep thinking of her, watching her cry. I want her to know that I’m truly sorry, She’s too sweet to cry like I had seen. If she’d only seen, but she never saw me, With tears on my face, I cried to sleep. Hearing her voice, it’s so beautiful, I’m in awe. How I adore her whenever she sings. Hopefully things will work out for her after all. She doesn’t deserve any bad things. The one night that we danced, I held her gently, nervously in my arms. My heart raced with romance. I felt safe; nothing could have brought any harm. The scent of her remains in my senses strong. The song we danced to keeps playing in my mind. I didn’t mean to make things work out all wrong. I really like her, and my heart doesn’t lie.</div>
These are 2 more poems dedicated to the summer girl. <div align=center> Verbal Consequence I walk around and forget what day it is. I don’t really care about none of this. The only thing that matters is she. All I want is her to be happy. Yet why do I want something she doesn’t bring me anymore? “Only friends” she proclaims and I feel like friends we are no more. It’s a different feeling when someone turns you down. How I have to keep going on like nothing happened, I don’t know how. It seems as if it were so easy for her to say the things she says to me. She has no idea how much I have to struggle and hide it so she won’t see. How much I die when I hear her voice in my ears. Each time I think about her feelings for him, it just brings me tears. It’s amazing how a few words can affect someone’s life. Well, just a couple she said to me, and now day-by-day I strive. She’s different from the rest, and that’s why I sought to win her heart. Why did she have lead me on when we were at the park? I don’t want to get my hopes up ever again. I’m hoping that by tomorrow, my life will end. Torture is all my heart receives. In love I shall never again believe. I used to have hope in miracles but now I’m clueless to what’s going on. Why does it seem as if all my luck in love goes completely wrong? Maybe I shouldn’t have asked how she felt so I wouldn’t be this way. I could have continued to adore her from afar, but now I’ll cry always. Slowly, my happiness is slipping like the sand of an hourglass. Once again, on the road of life, I have had another crash. She promised things would be the same, but her words are now empty. We talk and it’s not the same, and soon my sorrow will be plenty. I don’t know why I bother or try to find someone I can trust and love. No one is willing to give me their heart and I watch all my other friends hook up. When she said she didn’t feel the same about me or even close at all, I felt as if my lungs were compressing tightly and small. The feeling was so disastrous and my heart began to crumble. My hope and faith I had in her plopped down and began to tumble. My dreams, thoughts, and everything I wished for shattered to pieces on the ground. I really thought I had a chance with her but it all fell apart and I don’t know how. When An Angel Leaves You A miracle occurred recently but has left my heart sore. A craving of my eyes was satisfied because I saw her once more. And yet while staring into her eyes and ignoring the rest of the world, Going home that night made me come to grips that she’ll never be my girl. I’ll never have a chance to know what it’s like to hold her in my arms for hours. Never will I get the chance to say “Happy Anniversary”, greeting her with flowers. Laying on my back in bed and staring into black nothing, I feel as if happiness is straying from me, like she took something. Empty in my world, alone, cold and afraid; Those are my feelings accompanied with my pain. So strong is this agony covering me like a solid shadow in the gleaming light. I had no idea it was coming, it came without a sign in sight. The bliss she brings is relieving to every part of my body, making me stronger. We’re losing the bonding I thought we’d have at least much longer. She’s tearing me into shreds and pieces of me are blown into the wind. Who knows when I’ll find someone to make me that joyful again? The freshness and serenity I get when I’m around her; She speaks and every other sound is blurred. Slowly we drift from another, but does it only matter to me? Will we share conversations like we used to, or will it only happen in dreams? Gazing into the night sky, I don’t know what to think anymore. This isn’t a nightmare, it’s reality; could my heart get anymore sore? Sometimes I still smile when I hear her voice in my head. Crying has become daily, happening to me every night in my bed. Letting the music play with my face compacted on my pillow is my getaway. My days of thought are confusing and don’t fade away. I only hope I don’t end up falling again and getting hurt in the end. The next step is recovery and will be hard, even with such great friends. How I melt every time I see her with such skin so beautiful and pure. I used to think I had a chance and I waited for a while, but now I’m sure. I’ll never forget this summer and how I spent it: Talking everyday to a wonderful angel sent from heaven. I realized that she was sent, but not sent to me. How I yearn for her face, her voice, and what used to be. I only ask for one chance and I promise to make it worth its while. Oh, the way she flashes her eyes, topped off with her amazing smile. She leaves me breathless and now I understand: This angel flew into the skies, taking my heart in her hands.</div>
Hehe. I guess I only have one person reading these, but that's okay. As long as one person likes them, I'll continue as long as I can.
I used to have a best friend whom I got really close to. In fact, so close, I began to fall for her, but for the first time ever, I never expressed how I truly felt to her. I kept it a secret and even though we don't talk anymore, she still doesn't know I fell for her so hard. I wrote poems about her and here's one of them: <div align=center>It’s All A Dream Every night, I lie in bed helpless and lonely; All that I want, is you to kiss me and to hold me. I just want us to be alone; together we belong. Because your adorable voice just seems to turn me on. Life is just too short, so I have to make the best of all of it, But it’s complex when I feel too scared to tell you any of this. It’s stuck deep inside my head that our friendship will end, The day I confess my feelings to you my dear friend. What can I do if all I want is your affection each day? I’m trying but my feelings remain, driving me more insane, And I don’t know what you feel, do you push me away? With all honestly, with your heart, I would never play. Honey kisses, sweeter than the first days of Spring, I wish that you may some miraculous day bring. It’s like I suddenly stepped into the beauties of heaven, Or like staring into the horizon beyond the ocean. You take me by surprise, as you come closer & more closer to me, And I can’t speak & I hide it, because you’re truly a sight to see. Where do all of my words seem to go? I feel such passion, but do you know? Nervously, I speak with anxiety & I clutch my fists, And now I close my eyes, ‘cause I still can’t believe you exist. I’d go out of my way, just to get you a rose, As I gently kiss you on your small & cute nose. If only you’d take me by my hands, & say you’d stay, Because I would never go away; with you I’d stay. It’s all a dream, and no one can pinch me to waken; I’d be too shocked to have you in my dreams, too shaken. I would break each rule in every book, Just to see you give me those precious looks. Forget anything I’ve ever said in the past, It’s only you that I want to be with & have. A hidden & crystal clear river somewhere is glistening with the suns bright rays, Just as your smile has a tendency to make me follow you into a daze. This unrevealed river flows in a valley of roses of all kinds, Each one looking as delightful as you; so charming & so fine. I hope my destiny’s to be with you, it could happen today; It’s possible, because I love you so much, my dear saving grace. Together with each other forever, I hope someday in time, I love it all, especially those cute, irresistible eyes. Does it look that obvious? My game around you, I try not to spit, But you can tell that I love to wrap my arms around you like a gift. It’s all a dream when I stare into those catching, bright eyes so damn divine. You’re so cute, pretty, wonderful, sexy, and gorgeous all at the same time. It would all be a dream if I confessed my love and you’d say you’d be mine.</div>
I have no idea if anyone reads this anymore since I don't receive feedback, but as long as you guys keep reading, it's all good. Here's a poem I just wrote. It took me about an hour. Enjoy! Feedback, criticism, etc...always appreciated! <div align=center>You Linger Everywhere I go, I see a reminder of you. I can’t buy Jamba Juice without awakening a memory, And I can’t go to work without hoping you’ll stop by. It’s not easy watching a movie about people falling in love, When the problem is I’m not watching it with you. How can I sleep at night when my pillow still smells like your fragrance? How can I enjoy eating my sandwich knowing you’re not eating with me? Driving is hard knowing I can’t turn to the passenger seat and see you there. And waking up is pointless since you’re not there by my side rising with me. Every time the phone rings, I’m hoping your precious voice comes through, And when I hear a knock at my door, I rush to the door but not to find you. Anyplace and anywhere, I see pictures of you that aren’t really there. I hate sitting in my room when the aroma of you is no longer in the air. I rub the picture of you I have with my thumb the way I rub your hand, And all I want to do is pick you up and hold you in my arms. I can’t take a walk without seeing your face glisten in the sun, And I can go and hang out with friends but without you there it’s not fun. And unlike the stereotypical male, I don’t need to make my soft side shown, It’s always there as long as I keep thinking about you. Loving you is the best part of my life. Every time I smile it’s because I’m reminiscing about you. They say love is not boastful, that love is not proud, But I’m so thankful, so joyful that I want the whole world to know. You always understand just as I understand you. We connect so easily because we’re each other’s best friends. I think about that last slow song we had. If only I could slow dance with you one more time. If only I didn’t have to close my eyes and dream it all up. But dreams are made to come true, so I wait for the day they go through. Things only get better and someday they’ll reach their peak, The day I ask you the question if you’ll be my bride-to-be. You control me with the love you give me. In your hands I’m simply putty. I hear a pretty song when I think of you. I hear your voice whenever I start to feel blue. I live my life with your smile in my heart. I live in agony when we’re apart. I’ll take care of you because you’re the biggest part of my life. I’ll give you everything because of the way you love me truly. For all time, we’ll be together and smile, cheeks side by side. I love you more when you say hello, so never say goodbye. </div>
Falling for someone who's with Mr. Wrong is hard. You know she doesn't belong with him and that you're everything she wants, yet, she avoids the love you offer. Well, here are 2 poems about that for a girl named Shazia. <div align=center>All I Ask Dear God, tonight hear my call for concern, I ask you to do me a favor to someone superb. She is the reason why I live and try hard, She is Shazia, and I beg you to protect her from all harm. Watch over her closely and guide her right, And please don't let me cry tonight. What's in my heart is love that is waiting. To be loved again and to be cared for again, I'm anticipating. I only ask that you shelter her from the bad of life, If you happen to see that she is dreaming, let her know, I love her tonight, And just like the nights in the past, I've asked you for a relationship with her that will always last. When will you answer my prayer my lord? She is all that I want, there is nothing more. How could you keep something so valuable and beautiful away from me? Forever I've searched for someone like her, but you won't let it be. Does she ever think of me, sometime during the day? When ever I don't look, does she look my way? Does she have a clue that I'd die for her love? Do you know if she's going to someday be my only one? Please, let her come into my arms and be mine for eternity. Things in my life are miserable, and to not be with her, is hurting me. Dear God, please keep Shazia away from all others. Let her realize that no one can love her like me, I don't want another. I can't put her aside and move on, It's too difficult and I sit writing to her all day long. I have fallen in love with a special lady, but may I ask why? Why did I fall for her, if she doesn't care? It hurts me deep inside. I used to believe that love was wonderful bliss where I could rejoice. Now my lord, it's misery and agony, but I yearn for her lovely voice. If only my lips could touch hers, so gently and sweet. If you knew things would be this way, why let us meet? Can you ever forgive for all the wrong I have done? I wish that you could, because being in love isn't fun. Dear Lord, please know that I would sacrifice anything, So that I could be with Shazia, for she is my everything. I'm praying tonight like I've always done, So that you may protect Shazia, and lead her life into a world of fun. Please God, don't let anything happen to her, or I would die in pain. Watch over her more closely than anyone, because my love for her remains. Take care of her in the morning when she rises, and when the day ends. Keep her away from danger for my sake, because I love her. Amen. Love Is... Love is puzzling for us all, but yet it’s pleasing and sure. It’s a sickness that attacks us at one point of our lives, & its own cure. Love gives us all funny feelings that we can’t describe. It’s like you want to cry for nothing and you feel butterflies inside. Love has been in everybody’s life and some people are lucky to find, Someone so perfect for them so they can stay together for all time. Love makes us stutter and speechless and sometimes our palms sweat as well, Making us desperately lonely without the ones we love dearly & feel like hell. Love is something you can’t touch or smell and priceless and special to us. To do everything we can to love that special one, we all know we must. Love makes us act different to try to impress our only loves, Some people love one person & they’re the only ones they’re thinking of. Love keeps us striving, because some people can’t take no as an answer. When our loves look at us, we go crazy, just a glance & we’re a blur. Love puts us in risk of getting heartbroken because of pain and agony too, Because the kind of feelings people have after hurt, is ache & misery so blue. Love is when a guy likes a girl or the other way around. It’s when you meet the one for your life, but only one night they’re in town. Love takes control of our heart & mind & you can’t stop someone if you try, Because this feeling is what makes people so happy or breakdown and cry. Love going in a bad direction, could mean someone going upset with pain, Because they need that same love they’ve had the past days. Love is a game in which you must succeed or lose, and losing hurts. If you do lose and then life gets better later, it’s just that you lost your turn. Love’s unpredictable and weird, I can’t understand its ways. To me, that word is the cause of my pain in my mind, everyday. Love can be when you want no one except one special person you admire. You dream for the day to be with them, and you wish to fulfill your desires. Love is when the Spring season finally arrives. Maybe by then, people will be with the ones for their lives. Love’s consequences can be very serious, “Let’s Just Be Friends,”.....I’m always hearing this. Love is trying 2 forget the one who’s hurt u, but they won’t leave your mind. It can also bring suspicion if you break the trust just one time. Love is being clueless on what to do when the relationship is done, You don’t know how to act, where to go, and trust me, it isn’t any fun. Love is the pleasure for your mind. It’s when you insist on making that person yours, well I wish you’d be mine. Love is what feeds your fragile heart. Without the love it craves, you’ll fall apart. Love is what my heart is starving for; the affection and care. Kissing you, holding you inside my arms...you will never be there.</div>
<div align=center>Friend Of Yours You helped me get through problems of my own, I don’t see why I can’t help you with yours. I let you down truly and I apologize deeply. I feel so bad I wish that you could see me. Over time we’ve become close friends. You’re someone I know I can trust and depend. I’m sorry I could not do the same for you this one time. You said it’s okay, but I know that’s not how you felt inside. I would never want to lose you as a friend of mine. You mean so much to me and inside my heart is where you lie. I can’t bear to leave you like I did today. Here I am walking around with such dismay. To know you are disappointed in the mistake I made tonight, Makes me want to extend an apology with this poem I write. Please see how it kills me to imagine your thoughts of me now. I would have never thought to see the day I completely let you down. I enjoy each time we talk to each other because they’re special times. I still hope you’ll let me be something inside your life. I don’t know if I ever thanked you enough every time you were there for me. When I cry, there is always a tear less knowing you care for me. I believe in everything you do and will support you always. I should have stayed there for you because you wouldn’t have done the same. I would never take you as a joke because I want to help you when you need me. I still hope that someday I will be able to see you and you see me. You’re so sweet and I don’t think anyone could resist the beauty I have viewed. Not only that, but the way you’ve helped me is not like anyone else could do. You talk to me, comfort my pain, and put a smile on face that lasts for days. I need you to help me when I’m feeling an emotional way. I don’t want to be a friend you can’t trust from now on. If only you could forgive me because I have seen what I’ve done wrong. When you cry, I will cry with you so that you don’t cry in vain. If you hurt, I will do my best so that I can ease your pain. You’ll never know how much I really like you until you let me try. I want us to make this work and keep this friendship tight. Deeply I’m sorry with every ounce of love in my heart. Don’t let us go on as friends until you see how this is tearing me apart. I thank God you’re still my friend each and every night. Two wrongs don’t make a right, so I’ll leave it at one wrong and you decide.</div>
ive just read 5 or 6 of your poems and i think you really have a gift, their amazing i cant wait to pick up ur first book in stores soon
