This is a poem I wrote about how I am feeling at the moment. I hope you enjoy

Lost in the sight of your eyes
A glimpse of mischief and fickleness can be found
I know it is wrong to find such comfort in you
Like love itself, you will surely be my demise
A glance at you and I feel it
Welling emotions growing
How pernicious it is on my already damaged heart
You inflict this on me, but I cannot quit
Delving in for more of you
Opposite of what I should do
Especially when the affection is unrequited
Stinging venom is what I get from you
Yet you smile in my face
Or wish for longer talks
Uranium bombs would be more welcoming to me
Rather than a second of your embrace
Though I still long for them
Over anything else
Up close and personal conversations with you
Caught up in time, just us, with more love to stem
How your touches feel like fire
Flames blooming in their wake
Energy pouring from your fingertips
Eliciting sounds of pain and desire
Lust
Love
Intrigue
Kind and gentle I trust
Even though I have had my heart shattered
Fringes of past mistakes still clinging as it beats
It wanting to heal
Remembering the past it remains tattered
Every word feels like a kiss from death herself
A slow poison dripping through me
Numbing in a way that feels so good
Despite how it kills slowly
You do not realize the feelings that plague me
Out of everything, it weakens me the most
Undying, they persist
Rarely allowing me to be happy
So how can you say I do not have a burden on me
Tailing your weight
A heavy one that grows heavier every waking moment
Rolling and churning in me like a sea
Every word you say
Like every breath you take
I grow weaker
Kindly crumbling and allowing you to hurt me delicately
Every smile you give
Pushing the limits within
Undoubtedly killing me
Removes my will to live
Even despite all of this
I love you
Creating this gigantic hole in my heart
Eroding with a glance of your eyes

I have to say I enjoyed the hidden message more than the poem :) the first letters all combined to make a sentence! Back on the poem though, it's very thought provoking and I think the emotions are expressed well! Great poem
