I'm Sorry

Dont tell me you love me

Dont ask me to love you

Do not love me

For I cannot love you

Yes, I care

But cannot the way you want

All you ever had

Were good intentions

Looking for someone to cease your breaking heart

You found me

Be we are oh so young

You said i was the "one"

Yet, I didnt let you get your hopes up

I didnt know how to exlplain I wasnt

How to tell you I'm not ready

Not ready to be what you need

I am young, and for now free

You thought i would commit to you

Just because I dated you

You're not a bad person

Only everything I should want

You care, you want and you love me for me

No masks, no lies, only me

But I cannot take you

You deserve someone who can return the feelings

As for me, I know youare not the "one"

I will learn from you

But that is all

I love you

But not as you love me

I am your obsession

But you are not mine

Mine is life

Livining it and learning frmo it

Making mistakes and knowing what to do next time

I cannot be caged

At least not by you

So now I must fly again

Adn say my goodbyes

I know I hurt you

But if I had waited any longer,

You would have only been hurt deeper

I honestly believed I could truly love you

But now I know I cannot

Not as you loved me

I really like this poem, but I want to know who it is about.
