One Hundred Thousand Words

Folder: 
FINAL

I’ve sat and wrote one thousand words,

as over three hundred days have passed.

Each word I place upon the page,

I pray is more effective then the last.



One hundred thousand wishes I’ve made

to be your only love.

Five hundred thousand tears I’ve cried,

to hear you tell me “no”.



One million thoughts have embraced my mind,

as I picture myself with you.

I’ve sat and wrote one thousand words,

and none have gotten through.



The message always remains the same.

The only change is ‘strength’.

You said this was a foolish crush.

Then why hasn’t it gone away?



It hasn’t, because I love you.

And I can only tell you this with words.

It kills me to want to show you…..

You have now Idea how much it hurts.



But I can never embrace it.

That feeling of “letting go”.

Because I know how much you mean to me.

It’s more then you’ll ever know.



I’ve sat and wrote one thousand words,

and I will continue to write more.

I’ll dream another thousand dreams,

of greeting you at my door.



I’ll whisper another three million prayers,

to myself, when I need you.



But one thousand words,

nor one million words,

could describe how much I love you.

This is for the man I love, and can never ever have.
