When I see her she unknowingly ignites a flame inside of me.
It sets my soul ablaze
and weakens the cage
holding the butterflies from roaming free.
So free they go
Unconfined and unconcerned.
Covering me from head to toe,
The thought of her won’t let me go.
Now I can’t think clearly and my voice is no longer my own,
It whispers words I’ve never said, and some I’ve never even known.
Who is this
Who am I
What did she do to me……?
I don’t know
I don’t remember
And nothing as far as I can see……
All she did is smile,
And at the point Cupid had to team up with God and all the other powers in the universe
To conjure up the best concoction they could to bless me with this curse.
Love hurts.....
And I get a gentle reminder every time she walks away,
When I remember that she told me no.
Love Less Write More....

There is nothing like unrequited love for poetic inspiration. Nicely written with a surprise ending. Well done indeed
The poem conveys the overwhelming emotions of love, depicting how a person can inspire intense feelings and disrupt one's clarity of thought. It explores the contrast between the joy of affection and the pain of unreturned feelings, likening love to a beautiful curse. Ultimately, it highlights how a simple smile can lead to a profound transformation, leaving one to grapple with longing and introspection.
Why did she tell you no? It seems there has to be something there for you to feel how you do Bragee.
