_____Is it love?
This unexplained wanting of another;
_____Their smiles;
_____Their laughs;
Filling you with desires for their whole being,
_____Begging for their good will,
_____Hoping for nothing but their recognition.
Wanting them close by,
_____Beside you,
_____Near you;
Crying for their hidden pains,
_____And doing everything you can to stop them.
Closing your eyes, only to see them,
_____Then,
Softly crying yourself to sleep,
_____For you know you cannot be with them,
_____And that this feeling is cruel indeed.
Only to return to gazing from afar once more;
_____Through today and tomorrow,
_____And forever more.
