Please

 

Spending all this time with you

Is something I know I shouldn’t do

I tell myself over and over again

But here I am praying tonight never

ends

Hoping tonight is the night that you

Look at me at finally see the truth

 Please see beyond my friendly guise

And hear the words I keep locked inside

Let this be the moment when

You tell me not to go back to him

 

Oh, Oh Please tell me this is where I belong

Kiss me tenderly and ask me to stay

Please whisper the three words I’ve waited for so long

The same words I can’t find the courage to say

Please Tell Me

Oh Tell Me

That you love me, and will love me true

So I can tell you that I love you too

 

All these stolen moments that we share

Always strips my emotions bare

While talking and laughing, you take a piece of my soul

I want to remain lost in our own little world

Curled up next to you

Staring out at the moon

It would be way too easy to believe

In this silken fantasy

Could now be the moment when you pull me near

And whisper those words I long to hear

Please let this be the night you ask me to stay

 

But this is just a wishful dream that will never come true

Your heart belongs to her and I’ve left someone waiting too

My hopes disappear in a sorrow filled mist

As we say goodbye with a hug and a kiss

You thank me being such a great friend

To you that is all I have been

Eyes finally opened, the truth I finally see

To you a friend is all I will ever be

Heart sinking I know our time has come to an end

With shattered dreams and a broken heart to mend

I walk away knowing this time I won’t return

 

Please tell me you love me

Please ask me to stay

For a first attempt, you blew me out of the water. I can only hope that the rest are as amazing as the ones I have read thus far.

For your very first attempt at poetry, I'm liking it. I'm a sucker for things that rhyme and I'm happy to say (and see) that you've done that without getting too cliche.

It would make nice rap too.

if this is a first attempt, I eagerly anticipate future works. This was well written.
