How

What to say to the person that loved you once??
How do you explain to yourself
that it's not how it used to be???
How do you not get nervous when you see him?
How do you walk away and try not to cry??
How can you look at him
and not remember what it was like??
How can you not think of him
for the rest of the day??
How do you pretend you don't care
when you hear from him??
How do you go to bed
and not think of all those good times you spent with him??
How can you not smile when you remember
how he used to make you laugh??
How are you going to spend the cold winter without him??
It's just not the same...
how do you believe all the shit he did to you??
Why are you still nice to him??
After all you cried…
Why do you still smile at him?
How do you not think of him
when you listen to that "stupid song"??
How do you make yourself understand
that the love is gone??
How do you make the pain go away??
How do you explain to yourself
that you are not the girl he has been waiting for??
How do you forget all those promises
and pretend like he never said them??
How can you erase all the memories??
How can you pretend like nothing ever happened??
How??

Hey Girl

Hey girl! why dont you observe my love?
wherever I go I see you in front of me

you set my heart on fire
believe me I'm not a liar

the minute you think of me
I'll be there for you

I can be your crying soldier
you can cry on my shoulder

I can be your soul protector
I'll die preventing anythng from harming you

you're the greatest thing
that could happen in a lifetime
love is something nobody can control,
and like you always sweet

wherever you are or whatever you do
you'll be a person who touches my life forever

if you look in my eyes
you'll find them calling for you
if you listen to my heart
you'll hear it saying "I LOVE YOU"

What I Feel

I searched among the many memories
In my head to see if I could find,
A little something that would say
Just what was on my mind.

However there isn't one,
That captured it just right,
For no one can comprehend,
Just what I'd like to say.

I even find it difficult
To try to write it down,
Even in this very poem
For how shall I portray you?

This beautiful girl that I admire
To say I have feelings for you,
More than my heart can maintain,
Just enough to fill an ocean.

When I think about you,
I close my eyes and what I see,
Is someone I adore
A person who is beautiful,
Just by what I see inside.

Mere words cannot describe
The main qualities you show,
The love and caring nature that
You share with those you know
Causing my heart to appreciate you even more.

Now that you finished my poem,
Maybe you will notice all the love,
That I have for you for it's
Just what I feel.

Unrequited Love

I gaze at you from afar
Wishing I was her
the pretty girl you cherish
its more than I can bear

You said you loved me once
but that was all an lie
you left me here alone
now all I can do is cry

You picked me up and used me
as I was love sick fool
then you went back to your lover
the prettiest girl in school

now youve forgotten about me
but I cant let you go
boy you belong with me
I just cannot take no

so Im lying here in my bedroom
taking my last few gasps
Thinking of my soulmate
and the love that didnt last
