Better in time

poetry

i gaze at you from afar

a longing aching forever more

too shy, too afraid to say what i feel

i think that i'll be better in time

but the lie never leaves my lips

you haunt my dreams, my

waking moments filled with images of you

i know i can't live without you,

but you're lost in the clouds while

i stand grounded in my insecurities

 

i know i'll be better in time

i'll find the words to say

my fairy tale is one that is within

my grasp

i deserve to be happy don't i

you're the one

the piece to complete my puzzle

i sigh and turn away

indecision chokes me off

 

it's not meant to be

i know it true

you're too good for me

meant for someone far better

i'll always long for you

i'll be better in time

i always tell myself

the lie will linger

for all my days
