Do You Feel Feelings Too Poem by David Knox

I meet you... I met you
Then suddenly, erratically, irrationally, I have feelings for you
Sadly I'm not even sure the person who
You are, and you don['t know me.. so then how could you possibly have feelings for me
I'm tying to understand if just maybe there's a chance
If we have a chance
Although I'm enamored with you, how could you be interested in me?
I no longer hate myself, but in our only time together
I found myself expressing myself, expressing the darkness which lies deep within
I spout this depression, pessimism, and cynicism often, but it's truthful
That is how I felt, that is how I feel, I do not want to hide from you
But I also think what you do see of me is that part
I'd like to think I am more
I am sure I am more
I wish I could show you that
Is it too late?
Is the first impression enough to turn this love into a crush
Just another crushing crush
Is it too late, because it was never too early, because you never had feelings for me
How is it getting to know me and my darkness will 'woo' you, it is something
I think you would find intensely disturbing, but it is me
I've given up hiding nowhere
But surely I cannot be here with you
Not if I'm not wanted
Not now
Not sooner
Not later
I have to ask and wonder
ponder and think, do you feel feelings too?
Is it possible you do, are others comparably irrational in this instant love
Or has my disillusion grown to veil all reason and logic
I do believe the veil is strong
I do believe this veil is self-imposed
I do believe I am alone behind this veil
And so I believe all my thoughts, strivings, and wistful thinkings will fail
I shall stay nowhere, behind my curtain
With my heart stain
I will not forget you, but you will forget me. Maybe that's best
Maybe that's what's next
Maybe that's what we both need... or maybe just you
Here let me help you it's even harder to see when you can't hear
