A Pain In My Heart

In you I do see heaven by seeing a body of stars ….

But like that distance to achieve that heaven; the notion of you does reside so far …

I do sit besides myself on matters and feel like I have absolutely no way to turn…

I’m in love with the concept of being in love with you but in reality I’m setting myself up to be 
miserable and burn..

Yes burn, but purposely done by you; it’s a self inflicted wound that I have done to myself…

I am no different than being a thief …because your love is what I want to steal ..your love is 
my absolute wealth..!! 

I’m richer because of you within my mind, body, and soul…

But the summer has come and left between us for over a year now so I’m expecting to be 
left out in the cold ….

Yes, it’s no lie that I have been in love with you for awhile now yet our love for one another 
has remained on pause …

I have been informed on numerous occasions that you have founded a fountain of joy now 
so I won’t allow that to be destroyed by my cause…

Just know that I do wish you all the best and yes I’ll always cherish everything that you 
mean to me because that’s how deeply I’m in love with you…

The end of the world can be approaching us now but for you; there is nothing in the world I 
would not do! 


To love you, is to please you, care for you, and support you in all aspects…

And who would have thought I would have required these feelings for you when you and I 
first met…

Your beauty shines within my pupils and the vision of you remains visibility in my thoughts …
To miss out on you is unbearable but to yearn for you still remains a pain in my heart …!!
