I'll Wait Until You Love Me

That nickname
You gave me
Will never die.
As long as
I love you,
I will always cry.
For better
Or for worse
I want you
To be mine,
Because every time
You smile,
It makes
My heart shine.
Every time you hug
Another girl,
It makes my heart
Cripple and curl.
When will I realize
That I'll never
Have him,
You ask?
When he tells me,
Face to face,
With a serious mask.
I will not
Give up
Until my feelings change.
The possibility
That they will
Is in a zero
To ten percent range.
To love you forever
Is a long endeavor
Where I'm willing
To pay the price
And roll the dice.
When will you love me?
Don't worry,
I'll wait.
Someday I'll be
Your lucky date.
I'll be your best friend
And be kind
Until you figure out
I'm just what
You had in mind.
If I ask you again,
Please don't ignore me
Like you did before.
It really doesn't feel good
To be reminded
That you don't love me
Even more.

This poem is dedicated to Spencer, the one who broke my heart. I am still in love him but he is like my best friend.
