Need To Feel Like You Love Me Poem by Marvina Stedge

We started out really happy
enjoyed each other's company
went for walks in the park
kissed and hugged for hours.

You helped me with my homework
took the time to walk to walmart
took care of me when i was sick
you always knew the trick.

Used to love to spend time with me
no matter the time or day
and when you said 'I love you'
I knew you meant it.

But something has changed
my hope and faith are gone
even when we're together
I still feel alone.

Don't you see I'm worried
I'm up and I am down
it's like I'm in a river
and your face is fading out.

Please listen and understand
what i'm about to say
cus baby I can't bear to feel this way
for another day.

I need to feel like you love me
I need to feel important
I need to feel like you mean it
when you say 'I love you.'

Need to stop all the fighting
cus i'm sick of wiping all these tears
my only wish is that you'd understand
I need to feel you near.

Your yelling really scares me
It's worse when you leave
I miss the intimacy we shared
I need to know how much you care.

I'm sorry that I feel this way
I'm sorry for feeling so emotional
but the tears just keep pouring out
and i don't know how to stop them.

So how can I find that guy I first met
and fell in love with long ago
I don't want to have any regrets
and I just can't bear to let you go.
