I wish I hadn't met you
If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't be in this much pain
They say "The heart wants what it wants"
But when it wants someone like you, it makes my heart ache
If I were to make the first move, you would probably reject me
That's how the story goes
I wish I hadn't met you
If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't be in love
If love were a pool, I jumped right into the deep end
And I'm struggling to come back up to breathe
If only you felt the same, but even then
If we tried, we wouldn't survive
I wish I hadn't met you
If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't have this constant pain in my heart
They also say “Don't love too deeply”
For the depth of today's love is the depth of tomorrow's wound
But I've fallen hard, and I can't stop falling
Not when I see you almost daily
I'm glad that I met you
Because we met, I understand what being in love feels like
Although I'm barely surviving this constant pain
I wish we were closer, but that would make the pain worse
I wish you would make the first move
But you never will
Now I'm wishing on shooting stars
And manifesting for us to be
But none of this will work
When you're too busy playing the main character
If I had a fairy godmother, or I had one wish left from a genie
My wish would be for us to be together, but that's not how it works
I remember the moment I realised I was in love
I was thinking about you, and I thought about how deep my feelings are
My heart burst into a million pieces and I broke down in tears
There isn't much that could heal it
The only things that could help would be for us to date or for me to stop
But neither will happen, so I will stay here with this broken heart

- Comment from author about the poem: i wrote this poem because i am falling ridiculously hard for someone who doesnt like me the same way, and i figured poetry was an easy way for me to get my feelings out in some way
