In my Eyes

[delicriox]

You don't know how I'm feeling.
I have yet to vocalize
Desire deep inside me.
Can you see it in my eyes?

I tremble when I'm near you
Heat travels up my thighs
and I want you with an urgency
That I just can't describe.

Dare I reach out to touch you?
Do you think you'd realize
How much I want and need you?
Can you see it in my eyes?

I long to say, "I love you,"
But am scared of your reply.
Terrified like a child
I've become paralyzed.

The camouflaged emotions
Lead to pain and silent cries.
And yet I just can't tell you.
Don't you see it in my eyes?

Confessing through this poem
My dilemma summarized.
The feeling's quite cathartic,
But will lead to my demise.

Great job! I can really feel the mood. Keep up the good work!

thanks. i am not much of a poetry kind of person as kitty can tell you, but when i get in a mood or i just had something happen my artistic kind of side comes out. that poem took me a while, i think like a week to write it. *man (me) is bad at the poetry, even worse at drawing*

Poetry isn't about skill or being good at writing. It is about wanting to say something without actually making it totally plain. Expressing it with new words that you've never used before, so someone else can feel it.

If someone else feels what you're saying, then you've written a good poem and you are not t3h 5ux0r. So there. You win!
