Love Poem: Your Familiar Slience

Your Familiar Slience

That sudden insecurity that comes hand in hand with your silence,
That ever familiar silence,
The silence of you thinking of the easiest way to let me down...
And break my heart...
Again.

I think the marks I bare of last times disappointment,
 Has made you more cautious of the way you break the news to me,
The news that you do not love me back.

Others may love me and I love them,
But you will ALWAYS be the one for me.
You will ALWAYS be the one that my heart belongs to,
You will ALWAYS be the one that can make me smile with one touch,
You will ALWAYS be the one that make me crumble with one word.

You cast a spell on me,
Now I cannot stop loving you,
I’ve tried and tried but one way or another I always end up wishing you were mine.
