Love Poem: Selfish

Selfish

It’s hard to know how you’re feeling
But I am still trying
I would be sitting here lying
If I said you didn’t fill my heart to the ceiling
My time spent alone
Makes my want to hold you even more
I sit and ponder along the river shore
Thinking about how far apart we have grown
Is it selfish to want to say
I don’t want anyone else to have you?
My thoughts are drowning in blue
Every night and every day
Please let it be in my favor
I can’t stand it without you
My heart cannot stay blue
Your love for me will be my savior.
