Nobody Wants To Be Alone

I wrote this about Frankie, my crush. 5/21/10

The month is May, almost June.

I smell the flowers and pick the petals.

He loves me...he loves me not.

School is ending way too soon.

 

When September arrived, my situation was dire.

Who would I fall for this year?

I'd assumed I'd fancy a familiar guy.

However, the new boy set my heart on fire.

 

With each passing day, my affection grew stronger.

Every look made my heart pound.

His smiles buckled my weak knees.

The temptation was too much, I could love him no longer.

 

He was taken by another girl and my heart broke,

Every look was a lie.

His smiles were false.

I cried when I saw you, and no word we spoke.

 

I suppose none of this romance was real.

Your affection must have been created in my mind.

So, heartbroken, I write this poem and wail in pain.

With all that you've done to me, I must find some way to heal.

 

Although I know not how to make you see,

I'll move on and pray for a miracle.

Nobody wants to be alone.

I love you, Frankie.

You'll find another. I swear you will. The problem with the young heart is that it's a very impatient one. Mine certainly was; to the point I thought I'd explode if I didn't find a girlfriend. You need to have several relationships so you'll learn what it is that you really want in a guy.

OMG! Beatles my friend I LOVE THIS, because you have just put into words what true love really feels like and described what I have felt a million times. True love, even if they don't have a clue to how we feel about them.

A sad and powerful poem. Love will test us often in a life. Each lesson to make us wiser and walk into love with open eyes. I could feel the disappointment and sadness in your words. A very good ending to excellent poem.
