My Love Is A One Way Street

annonymouslytortured

My love is like a one way street,

It only goes one way.

 

I love you.

Your stupid hair,

Your mischievously perfect smile,

Your “I am the best at everything” attitude,

I could go on.

 

I see your pain, and I share it

You see my pain, but you cause it

I feel your sorrow,

You feel nothing.

 

I once told you, you were my closest friend

You once told me, I always know how to cheer you up

You know me better than I know myself

Cheer me up now

 

The tears I cry are for you

Your eyes are dry

My love is a one way street.

 

My heart is breaking

Yours is healing

Does she make you whole again?

 

My love is like a one way street,

Never going both ways.

 

Maybe one day.

Maybe

One

Day.

    Nice poem, welcome to mps

  • BRIAN & ANGELA

    WELCOME FRIEND ~ Thanks for your first poem ~ Powerfully penned and one many of us can empathise with. As we progress from our teens into adulthood and our 30's we fall in and out of love many times. In my experience ~ Love is (sometimes) a One-way Street at a other times a cul-de-sac (dead end !) or a roundabout ~ It goes round in circles and gets nowhere ! My Philosophy always is "Better to have loved and lost ~ than never to have loved at all !". You can only learn about love from personal experience ! Thanks for caring and sharing ! Yours BRIAN (UK) Please check my poems ~ Thanks B.
