Stuck on you.

Stuck on you.

A Poem by Beth Wilcox

Fingers shaking, heart racing; this is how I feel around you.

Cheeks burning, words tripping; I just lost control around you.

and now here I am standing in front of you,

you can see the hurt in my blue eyes.

 

but you know, you have changed my life.

and I don't see how, but I still want you endlessly.

Boys crawl at my feet but you're the only one I miss.

and I honestly say no one has ever made me feel like this.

Why can't I be everything you want?

and I know you don't think of me, but I'm stuck on you.

Stuck on you.

 

Tugging at my clothes, loking down at my feet; I can barely breathe.

Mind racing, eyes raining; why can't my feelings just leave?

and no here you are standing there saying what we had,

is gone and so wrong.

 

but you know, you have changed my life.

and I don't see how, but I still want you endlessly.

Boys crawl at my feet but you're the only one I miss.

and I honestly say no one has ever made me feel like this.

Why can't I be ecerything you want?

and I know you don't think of me, but I'm stuck on you.

I'm still stuck on you and everything you do.

So sweet. Love is a drug.

The last two lines complete the poem. The flow is wonderful, I feel like humming it.

Well done!

Sounds like what happened to me. A sad poem, but the words flow like silk. You are an amazing poet.

I like this poem. The movement of words and the story in the poem is very good.
"I'm still stuck on you and everything you do."
Last line made the poem complete. A excellent poem. Thank you.

Well this is lovely but in the second to last line there is a sad few words "i know you don't think of me" It is hard when you love someone and they don't feel the same way I knwo. This was a poem wearing your heart on your sleeve and I am privileged you shared it with me.
