Unwanted

Wrote this in World History today, you can take it several different ways.

I never wanted you this way

Truth be told,

I never wanted you

But my heart did

It knew what it wanted

You

It ached for you to love me

To accept me

To see me for what I am

But you didn't

You were to cold to notice

To caught up in yourself to care

My heart held on

Hoping, One day

One day you would love me

One day you would smile at me

Laugh with me

But to you,

I was a mistake

Wasn't meant to be

It wasn't my fault

That you did what you did

That I was left stranded with you

You were supposed to care for me

Love me

Though you didn't

I still hoped

That one day you'd see

Notice it was me

Not you

Who was wronged

Author's Note

This could be taken a couple different ways, I want to know how you see it, and what you think of it of course. Hope you enjoyed.

[Forever Hidden]

Best poem I've read today!

[Archia]

I quite liked this. I saw it as that heart taking a person through their life instead of what they really want.

[Aeternal Oceanfire]

True, it could be interpreted differently. It is a truly marvelous poem. I love your free style!

Although this does speak to me of love I think it is more of a parental love or a parent figure...it seems to me as though you are longing for approval, the lines "It ached for you to love me to accept me" are what make me think this because when people write about those they love (lover) they don't usually write about acceptance. Plus people are able to recover from a lovers rejection but it is a parents rejection we never seem to get over (probably cause they are the ones who are meant to love and accept us no matter what). Great poem!
