My Star Poem by Rebecca Vera

I've cried myself to sleep this week…
Hoping to think of something else when I awake…
I woke up with dried tears on my cheeks, and new ones filling my tear ducts…
Little bubbles with ideas just hanging around my head
figuring out a way to make this feeling go away…
This time around there's so much more depth
and truly hurts to let go…
I am not ready to make this affair a memory yet
but since you're complacent and have a conscious
I have no choice...

A victim of unrequited love, why does it hurt as so?
I did my best to please you
Still you let me go…

Feels as If I've lost a part of my soul
Even though it was 'Just SEX'
To me it was fragments of 'That Star' slowing falling into my arms…
No one understands as they aren't in my shoes
I've met a man that's indeed an awesome catch…
I noticed you and didn't get to know you
I wasn't given the chance,
'Friends and lovers' no further than that
for we are not 'like minded individuals'
Even friends have expressed and 'Told me' so!
I am not in the same capacity as you, I know, except
the words hurt so much more being told by you…
The intellect I lack according to your soul
the reason behind your distance justified,
causing the pieces of my star to lose their brightness...

For months I waited whole heartily pretended to move on and be over you
but you very well knew it wasn't true as my heart is still set on you.
What will it take for this to end my friend?
How long will it last?
You are in my heart my dear bud,
even though you have put yourself in my past…
