THE CRACK IN YOUR DOOR...

cerry

I want him

But he doesn’t want me

And that bothers me.

 

Why won’t he like me?

I guess I'm not what he wants.

 

I'm left to drown in the sea of my insecurities

Because if he doesn’t want me...

who will?

 

How cruel can you be?

“He’s just not that into you”...

Is taking too long to sink in.

 

I guess me wanting you was never enough.

It was my mistake.

I should’ve never noticed you.

 

I should've never given you a chance to have access to my thoughts

I mistook the little crack in your door for a wide-open door.

Inviting me in.

I regret the day I set my eyes on you.

    When you let them in, It's hard to get them out.
    Now the power has shifted and the confusion embedded.
    Time for a rethink.

      You're right. I opened the door wide for the ghost of him, I'm now the one hurting, so I gotta let go and rethink!

      A poem of unrequited love and the frustration and anger that accompanies it. There is a questioning of self both as to value and choices. Nicely written
