Feelings At Bay

Breathing
It's kinda hard to do
You're there without me
I'm here without you

Feelings
They're there behind the walls
Love beckons me
My name it calls

Trust
It binds you and me
Keeps us together
So peacefully

Jealousy
It gets in the midst
Slithers through the cracks
Causing our trust to twist

Friendship
It's a powerful thing
It consumes you
With the hearty warmth it brings

But...

Feelings
They try to 'get in the way'
My brain fights my heart
Trying to keep them away

When
Will I let these feelings free
Stop hiding from you
And start being the real me

Why
To protect what we have
Shelter the memories
The convos... The laughs

You
Are a great friend to me
I wanted something more
And you refused to see

I
I'll wait patiently
Try as long as I can
You won't runaway from me

You
Said you trusted me
All we can do now
Is just wait...and see

Not Jealous

I'm not jealous. I say. My feelings are over and done with. My feelings are tattered and torn. Basically. I learned how to stop caring. Not to stop caring completely. Well you know what I mean.

Esteem

I hold you up in the highest esteem. Proud to be part of your life. But what Morsel do I receive. I battle daily with my own low self esteem. Only sit and dream of what could be.

When Realisation Sets In

It hurts to know that you are liking/enjoying the attention from others and not from me. But, I've also come to realise that you only see me, when stripped of all the fancy words, as a friend.
