Unrequited Love Poem ~
Some Things Just Don't Fade Away
by Maria H
 
I wanted you to pass
Another one of my phases
Thoughts from peculiar places
Just another one of many smiling faces
But you stayed with me

I needed you to faded
You caused me so much pain
Hopelessness bordering on insanity
Unable to breathe
Express the pangs of my heart
I felt your fingertips on by backside
Only to see you were never there

I was desperate for you to go away
Go away
Just go away
Did you think that I didn't see
The disdain in your face
Why would I stay
And face my execution
If your heart belongs to a black hole
And you are not right beside me

But as life went on
And I listened to myself
I found that though love was not returned
I had not died from me
Was down but was not out
Was rejected but did not fail
And my love does not just fade away
My heart cannot just be executed
This desire does not just leave me

You are a scar on my heart
To remind of the pain I endured
Sleep I lost
Memories I keep
And why I love you everyday
Because you just don't fade away
