We're separated.

But, it's only a thin phone line.

I love the sound of your soft, beautiful voice.



We're side by side.

But, there are millions of miles between us.

I long to meet your flawless face.



I've never met you.

But, I see you everyday.

Your words cut me so deep.



I see you.

But, you see straight through me.

You'll never understand.



I love you.

But, you'll never love me.

That's how it is.

I don't need a rose. I want a daisy you picked for my hair. I don't want some fancy box of chocolate. I want a pink frosting cookie you made just for me. Lets skip the upscale restaraunt and have a picnic in the park.

this poem is...almost painfully sad and full of longing. i admire the intensity.

 

That being said, Why? Why is that "how it is."

 

just curious ;]
