Sweet Pain

Sweet Pain

A Poem by Joey Martinez

have you ever had someone you barely knew stuck inside your mind
you can't help but think about them all the time
you wonder if she's okay, is she hurt, is she fine
and that you'd do anything for her even the most bizarre crime
and you say to yourself, "WHY CAN'T SHE BE MINE?" 
but I never show my feelings, I keep them discrete
I keep my emotions bottled up, but now its spilling on my feet
love is the ferocious battle and I admit defeat
I never felt this way before
I don't know whats in store
I don't know If I should be happy or afraid
they say love is a mess but I am not a maid 
I'm just going to let life do its thing
I'm going to see where it takes me and sooner or later I'll realize if it was a fling 
but whichever the outcome may be, I know it will sting
because I am in facing Love in its own ring
I can't dodge it, its just hits me but I get back up
love is like a volcano, its steady now but soon it will erupt
sometimes I can't control what I feel
as if my emotions were committing robbery of me, trying to steal
but I'll keep my guard up and hope for the best
so hopefully one day I can get rid of the pain that's barring my chest

"Im just going to let life do its thing"

"Im going to see" Both of these Im words need to be spelled I'm.

"sooner or later I'll realize if it was a fling or the real thing" I think you might want to drop or the real thing. It causes the line not to rhyme properly and it doesn't fit the beat of the rest of the poem.

Not meaning to nit pick. Everything else is very nice here and it reads really well.
