Powerful Emotions

Folder: 
Heartache

So Many emotions running through my mind,

I wish I could take the pain and leave it all behind.

I wish that you felt the same for me as I feel for you,

Unfortunately I’m infatuated, there’s nothing I can do.



Tears fall upon my pillow before I go to bed,

Then again in the morning when I raise my weary head.

You’re all that I think about, every moment of every day.

Nothing that anyone could say or do could make it go away.



I want things to be simple, there’s something missing in my heart.

I want us to be together, instead of worlds apart.

What if I told you just how I truly feel?  

Would you run away and hide from me or would you keep it real?



I guess I just have to take a chance and be honest with you.

It’s something I’m afraid of doing, but something I have to do.

Hopefully it will all work out for the best,

But until it does, I’ll just be depressed.

I like this poem because it can relate to so many people. I'm not sure if the title suits it though. Why should the emotions be shattered? When you feel that strongly about someone the emotions are that much more whole. Great poem.
