    Wanting

    You've never said it
    but I can see it in your eyes
    something passed between us
    that our eyes cannot disguise
    A simple smile from you and my heart would skip a beat
    for one touch from you
    in my heart forever is were I'll keep
    Knowing yet not knowing
    that it could never be
    my mind always tried to tell me
    what my heart could never see
    Spent years wanting
    What I thought only you could give
    pushing true happiness aside
    waiting for you so I can truly live
    Not realizing the pain I caused
    to someone close to me
    Someone who wanted me
    the way I want you
    someone who saw in my eyes
    what I saw in yours
    Someone who wanted my touch
    as much as I wanted yours
    Someone who held on
    no matter how many times I tried to leave
    I couldn't see that everything
    I wanted from you
    was always right in front of me

    Very sentimental and deep poem

    A truly romantic poem about longing & need that is beautifully crafted. "I couldn't see that everything I wanted from you was always right in front of me"——powerfully confessional!

    To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
