Deep in your eyes

I see understanding

pure and unconditional

although at times hidden

through all the sorrow

and in the realization

that you can't have me.



You think i'm to good for you

when really i'm not

are things really the same

as the way you once thought.



In your eyes are your feelings

you don't realize

that i'm not perfect

don't want to be

that I want you too

you need only to ask.



You think I need better

while all I want is you

when will you see me

accept that it's true.

Nicole,

I think this poem did something special by explaining why people that were meant for eachother never end up falling in love, its sad that a person's shyness or insecurity could cause someone the most important thing in life.
