Unrequited Poem by Shreya Jani

I love you dearest love with all my heart
but this heart that I love with is full of fear
If I rid my self of this darkness
I shall rid my self of you
so I hold on tight to you my dear heart.

I love you since I fear love
as separation after union is inevitable
so being with you unrequited I guess
I am where I fear the most
It makes breathing easy so I hold on my dear heart

the beginning already smells of the endings
So I don't have to second guess the future
just play with dreams I spin are my comfort
I fear love the most
thus I hold on to you tight my dear heart.

Such love is shame such love is cowardice
the logic of sanity may scream out loud
but I cling to loves disgrace with joy
Joy that is in my heart
will be by your side always in my dreams my dear heart.
