Unrequited Love

Unrequited Love

A Poem by Michael Wright


Ask me what I can give . . . 

. .  I will promise you my heart and soul.

Tell me what you want, . . .

. . . that what only you wish to give.

For the many days and years . . . 

. . .I have longed for just that.

Seeking for your redress. . . 

. . . seeking for your forgiveness.

For all this time. . .  

. . . I have only been an empty shell.

Y

our beauty was always stunning. . .  

. . . Let me bask within your glow.

Place you hand into mine . . .

 . . . We will walk this journey together 

Following our dreams . . .  

. . . We will walk among the stars.

Having deep feelings for one who does not share the passion is a special type of heartache that most of us go through at some point in our lives. It's a pain that can quickly fade with the advent of a new love...or it can last a lifetime, relief never within reach. If you say you are still working on this piece I think you have a rock-solid foundation on which to build further. Good luck Michael. take care...dan
