PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You look at me

You make me weak

I look deep into your eyes

And I fall down on my knees

I'm crying tears of confusing regret

I'm not sure what to do

It’s not my choice yet

I want you to know how I feel about you

But I can’t tell you anytime

Cuz your girl’s always around

I can’t hurt her she’s too nice

I care so much for everyone else

Because I'm a tough girl, I can take care of myself right

I keep my pain all to myself

I'm so scared but I’ll still fight

I refuse to let you in my heart

I did that once and you ripped it apart

I cry when I'm alone in bed

But when anyone’s around

The pain’s locked up tight in my head

I want to tell you everything I’ve ever wanted to say

But my heart is so fragile

I build walls and I keep the only thing I want away

It’s hard to keep it all inside

But I won’t let you hurt me

Not again
