Tonight Poem by Megan Frame

Tonight



Sleep won't come tonight,
Though I turn out the light.
My thoughts turn to you,
This crush is something new.

It's never felt like this before.
No. Today there's something more.
Something in your teasing smile,
Hidden in some secret file.

Like a Thief in the night, you crept.
Like a lion on a hunt, you leapt.
But you don't know how much you took.
You stole my heart. You thief! You crook!

Still I know it can't be this way.
Though for you I'm puddy or clay.
So easily used, I do all you ask,
Every single insignificant task.

Yet when day is through,
It's not me your thoughts turn to.
Forever condemned to be apart,
Because I'll never have your heart.
