Strange Love Poem by Lisa Knipe

Have you ever loved someone so much it hurts? Or tried letting go of something precious? Love is such a strange thing that makes people act weird. I love you so much but you're the only one who'll never know the truth. I'm gonna draw a circle round you; I can't draw a heart because this heart can be broken but, this circle can go on forever! ! I just want to hear the three words from you to know you feel the same way about me. I know we'll never be together but in my heart and dreams we will be. You're my only cure when I'm ill and you're the only one I could ever love. I've tried so much to get over you but this heart of mine still holds on, why can't I let go? I think of you and smile you think of me as just a friend how can I hide my true feelings. How can I pretend how do you expect me to pretend that I don't love you my mind is telling me to let go but my heart its telling me not too. Seriously now this is from the heart. I don't want to lose you don't want us to be apart. I know you think I'm kidding but honestly I'm not my eyes fill up with tears my love for you... never forgot. People say a true love never dies and your meant to be that true love forever, it might of happened for them but it hasn't happened for me! ! How can I tell you what I feel for you?
When I think of you my feelings twist inside as if someone's fist reached in and grabbed a few, and turned and turned them tight and tangled. I've tried
somehow to say: You're the sun in my sky. The wind that takes me where I want to go. The sweet incense that makes me feels so high. That loving you seems all I need to know. But it all sticks in my throat! It sounds too cute, empty as a wrinkled paper bag. You won't believe it! Better I stay mute than offer you cliches that make you gag. Yet I wish to tell you of my love, if only love its own locks would remove!
