Unequited Love Poem by Emma Sinclair

He's there deep in my heart

often in my thoughts

a song that skips a beat

you're not him though

you hurt me and let me down

you still sneak into my life

begging me to come back to you

I never want to be hurt from you again

but the heart knows what it wants

I believe It's who I'm with now

he sends thoughts of unholy things

that I sometimes wish I could do

but I'm never doing that to you

I've finally found someone everyone loves

almost as much as I do

I want him in my life forever

just as I once wanted you

you reach for me all the time

but I must protect my heart from you

you know me better than anyone

and there's no denying that

I hope one day that he will too

because babe there's no turning back
