You will never understand..

You will never understand..

A Poem by D S Rollins
"

It's always too late...

"
Why did I wait so long?

Now you will never be mine.


I was scared of being rejected

But there was never the right 'time'


You didn't give me any signs

I thought you were just being nice


Now I will never know

Couldn't you have been more precise?


You probably gave me hints

But I didn't pay any mind


I was pretty much being myself,

Clueless and blind.


I'm so used to having guys as friends,

That I decided to wait


But I guess you took the hint,

And I decided my fate.


Would it have been so hard to say

'Look, I really like you'


It would be only in my wildest dreams

That you would reply, 'Yeah, I like you too'


You're gone, and I don't know if I'll ever know

If you ever felt the same way


I hope I won't have to find out,

on my dying day.

Author's Note

Inspiration: I liked (well, still like) someone, I told him I liked him, and next thing I know, he's with someone else. And I have the worst luck with guys, it's either I don't tell them, or I do and they don't feel the same way.

This was an outstanding piece! I hate this feeling, but I usually give up him when he gives up on me... I don't try to go after something I know is useless, but enough rambling about me... this was great, I loved it! 100/100

Not having someone or having the wrong person next to you will make you question your actions in the "playing field". I stand true to the belief of, "If someone cares for you enough they will make the effort!" -Very well expressed emotion though love!

I had this back in 2007 where it was a mess in the end........yet we are "friends" or so I keep holding onto.....not sure what his mind holds and I never will. Good write.

I have been through exactly what this poem says. I feel the emotion in this and it's really easy to relate to. I love this. A lot.

This is such an emotional piece, I love the honesty in it. It sucks anyone has to feel or go through something like that but, your words are very beautiful.

been there done that!!! Except, the guys that i do get, are real winners. and i say that with the most sarcasm possible. lol. the ones i did like i never thought would like me back and was too afraid to say anything. thought they were way out of my league. but now i guess i see it would have been worth the effort anyways to at least try. i owe myself that much! takes a lot of coursage though to go up to someone like that and tell them how you feel.

Very emotional piece. I can relate totally with what you're saying and I find this poem is very interesting. Good job.

Aaww hun *hugs* This is such a horrible feeling too. You portrayed it really well, the horrible lingering as you go round in your own mind. We try not to have regrets but the what if's can't help much laugh at us. Well done
