My Heart is Unhappy

My Heart is Unhappy

A Poem by Jots28

My heart is unhappy, I think it's angry 
at me.
I know it's my fault, for all I look I will
just never see.
My mind is always busy, wondering around
in the past.
Scared I may loose the detail, that my memories 
won't last.
Pictures still in a frame, in an easy to get 
to place.
So when I want to remember, I can always
see his face.
It's hard because at first I wondered why I
had to let him go.
It took all the strength within me, and why, I
will never know.

My heart was hurt from the pain of it, and
my face flooded by the tears.
Asking with every wish to give me back all
those years.
There grew this silence between us, for words
cut us inside.
From there on in every emotion I learnt to
hide.
But never was I allowed to forget, at times 
I wish I could.
Around every corner of progress he was
always stood. 
I would look in his eyes, I would hold his hand. I
am at home.
Before I knew it he was gone, and again, I 
am all alone. 

I don't know whether with age if my love
got shy,
No matter how much I wished I never loved 
another guy.
It would never matter what perfection
they had out or in,
because truth of it was they could never
be him.
Now there is this struggle between heart 
and mind,
Do I wait for my hopeless dream or leave 
it behind?
The secret is it's not a choice I could ever
make. 
I can turn away from this but I can not stop my 
heart or mend it's break.

So here I am, me and my helpless love, here
we stand. 
Believing, hoping that I will go back home, look
in his eyes, hold his hand. 
Or someone will break my curse of a love 
with no return. 
That I will look into another's eyes and 
of his love I will learn.
I understand if I never go home or 
move somewhere new
I deserve nothing more than I get, no
love to carry me through.
So young was my heart, it's been too long 
now to let go. 
Of a normal love my heart will never 
know.

Gee
If I can be totally honest for me it was a wee bit hard to read as the flow was a bit off.I find that if you keep the syllable count in each line there or thereabouts the flow is much smoother,but that is only my opinion.
My heart is unhappy,
it's angry at me,
I know I'm at fault,
but my ego won't see.

Or something like that.Take care.
