Our New Reality

Esmeraldaya

It's harder 'cause it's no longer a fantasy.

Something real between you and me.

At least that's how I choose to see,

but maybe its all make believe.

 

Try as I may; try as I might.

The words never seem to come out right.

I never want to wake up from this dream,

'cause, here, you belong with me.

 

If I told you now how I feel,

would it scare you away?

If I speak these words,

would it make you appreciate,

all the times when nothing was said?

Words just sitting in my head,

and we could just go on being friends.

I'm scared you won't see

all the ways that we can be

something more than a fantasy,

our new reality.

 

I'm afraid we won't be able to ignore

if you don't want something more.

We won't be the friends we were before,

but I just can't do this anymore.

 

I can't pretend to be,

especially when I feel differently.

 

What do you want?

I can't keep on guessing,

though I can't shake the thought.

I should give it more time,

then maybe it'll be fine.

I could get on with my life.

I'm done telling lies.

 

You may not think

what I've begun to see,

but we are on the brink

of our new reality.

  • BRIAN & ANGELA

    WELCOME ESMERALDA ~ Thanks for your first poem ! This is a polished LOVE POEM ~ straight from your heart. If you sent it to me ~ I would be flattered and I would think how lovely that a lovely smart Girl like you would send me such a letter ! In the past I have both sent and received "Love Letters" just like this which "request" a response. Some of the Ladies I wrote to said YES (and some NO !) It was the same with my response ~ to some Ladies I said YES ~ and to others NO. But in every case we liked getting the letter and thought better of them even when the answer was NO. In your case it all depends on what the BOY thinks of YOU. If he likes (loves) YOU and wants to date ~ that is the outcome your heart desires. If he politely says NO at least you tried and you have to start again. Better to have reached out in LOVE than done nothing ! SEND THE LETTER / POEM ! Thinking of you ~ Yours BRIAN (UK)

      All sound relationships are built upon communication . Each word shared is a brick in the foundation of love . Love is the taking from your partner . The more each one takes from the other the more they become together . If he does not take from you , you cannot give him love . And you must take from him to share his love . Show him , talk to him , and share your thoughts with him . And it will be revealed .

        It is hard to know what the other person feels
        Even if this could turn real
        I have to chose what to reveal
        I have to live
        with what I choose
        Though feeling should come alive
        to survive
        I have to see him every day of our lives
        though if not shared I will not cry
        I do not wish for the awkwardness that lies
        Maybe be if I wait awhile
        Take some time
        Give him time
        His feelings will match mine
        and I won\'t have to take the dive
        put my feelings on the line
        I really wish I could try
        I have a choice
        but nevermind
        I'm only a friend in his mind
        he said they were not shared
        now all I am is scared
        Feelings change
        like flowers grow
        if I never try
        I'll never know
        Though it's scary
        I should give it a go
        Even if he says no
        I don't want to be that girl
        Who need approval in this world
        But people can be cruel
        they can tool
        with you emotions
        so you become broken
        I needn't say any more
        somethings cannot be restored
        but alas I fear no chance even more
        Though things will not be as they were before
        I have to do this for me
        take a chance and let it be
        maybe I will see
        there nothing to fear when you act differently

          • Esmeraldaya

            uh undecided

            • Esmeraldaya

                You've got the upper hand; the gift to give...whether or not this one (your crush) lives up to the perfect 'mold of a man' as arranged before all time by the hand of the Creator is largely beyond your control. A lot having to do with the choices he is making right now. All of us guys fall short of "the mold" while on this side of heaven ... but do not despair - your guy is indeed out there right now, waiting for that chance meeting, and he\'s the guy that is closest to "the mold." Wait for him; pray for him; love him...

                Telling love to crush is one difficult task if they are our friend...I too have passed through this...don't tell openly but tell small small words that you like that person more than a friend..know their reactions then propose..

                You must show it to him otherwise you will go on not knowing one way or the other, if he is not interested you must move on as stagnation is not an option. Good write. Welcome to MPS.
