The Pain Is Getting Worse Poem by Andrew Matthews

I am in pain
not a great deal
but just enough
to serve as a constant reminder.

I am suffering from an illness
it's not physical but emotional
it won't let up
that's what the thought of her does to me.

Loving her would be easy
as simple as 123
I know it would
definitely.

I have had my chances, opportunities.
I hope I get just one more
but my worst fear would be
that she has settled down, married someone.

If she has
I will have to stop thinking about her
and stop writing about her
full stop.

If she has
good luck to her
I will be sad then happy
that she is happy.

but if not
then I will take the next chance, opportunity
to tell her how I feel
and that it's the real deal.

but if she isn't interested
I will know straight away
her reaction when she sees me will tell
all I need to know.
