Why?

I see you walk past me
With a grin on your face
You speak to me with kindness
With hope there might be an us
But every time I have feelings for another
I somehow mess up and end up nowhere
In a land full of hurt
To think I may one day be with you
My hope and wishes may be crumbled
Unless you see me the way I see you
Can't life just give me a chance to be with someone
Someone that will love and care for me
All I ask for is forgiveness from the past
And let me have someone that would hold my hand
And appreciate me for who I am
Other than how I look

So potent lines! It is, I think everyone's wish to be with someone who loves them for what they really are and not how they look. This is a seriously good piece of work!

Unrequited love, the bitter beast itself is a hard thing to swallow, we have all been here ,loving someone who did not even care to give you the time, full of emotion and written well, thanks for the read.

The honesty in this piece really hits my heart, I got such a strong sense that the person is confused and torn about what to do, and I love it.

The truthfulness and sense of longing give this piece a strength that tugs at your heartstrings. It speaks deeply to the reader and I think most, if not all of us desire to find that person who cares for who we really are and not take us for granted. Well crafted, thank you for sharing.

This is beautiful. There is no escaping the Past. It will always be there to haunt us all. You cannot ask for forgiveness, because whats been written cannot be erased. Its only what we write that can change. Good write :)

Well written poem about a reality that will probably remain unchanged for a longer period of time. Appreciating for someone as they are and not by the physical sense is an art that is rarely touched. but on the bright side, there rule breakers... Hope you find someone real enough to know you as YOU. Brilliantly put. Loved it.

This is a powerful piece with loads of depth and emotion behind it.
This is real, this is you being honest and real.
I'm sure heaps of people an relate to this.
Everyone just wants someone to make them feel special to love them, not for there body or there looks, but for who they are as a person.
I hope you find that someone.
Great poem keep writing :)
