Unrequited Love

Unrequited love is everywhere

Unrequited love, you needn't stare

Unrequited love, fight it if you dare

Unrequited love, he just doesn't care



I'm in love with this guy

No matter how hard I try

I just can't catch his eye

Don't know the reason why

I just wanna die



Talkin bout unrequited love, oh oh oh oh

Unrequited love

Talkin bout bein in love with someone

Who's not in love with you

Talkin bout thinkin of someone

Who never thinks about you

Talkin bout dreamin of someone

Who never dreams of you

Talkin bout bein in love with someone

Who's not in love with you



He's the ultimate guy

On him I spy

When he walks by

I breathe a heavy sigh

My love for him does persist

But he doesn't know I exist

When he sees me coming he looks the other way

He won't even give me the time of day

But I remain faithfully his, I must be nuts

Faithfully his, no ifs, ands, or buts



I'm carryin this way too far

I don't even know who you really are

How can I call it love...I'm trippin over my feet

Love can only happen if two hearts meet

This mere infatuation is causing me frustration

It's such a complication

To make this evaluation

So don't you fall into this trap

Or you'll suffer a heavy rap

Just follow this simple rule

Wipe your mouth if you start to drool



Unrequited love...that's not what you mean

Infatuation sounds more like your scene

Infatuation is a deviation

A complication causes much frustration

this is another really amazing poem! "But I remain faithfully his, I must be nuts faithfully his, no ifs, ands, or buts" nearly brought tears to my eyes as it reminded me of myself. being madly in love with guys I don't know.. it's so good.:)

This reminds me of Ashlee Simpson's song "Undiscovered". It is similar to one of my songs. I wrote one a while back about being in love with someone and not knowing exactly who or where they are. I like it. It is very deep and really sad. Nice job. And I love Ashlee Simpson, so saying your lyrics reminded me of her song is a compliment. If you don't like her, that is fine. I was just making sure you knew I met that as a compliment
