I knew you weren't the one
I picked flowers and petals
out of the field you crossed
And I sat there daydreaming
The sun by my side
The wind in my hair
Each day passed by and I knew you didn'tcare
There were ways I tried
Though to not seem desperate
I only watched on the sideline
There were notes I had written
Practicing what to say
Yet when you're near me
I can't even say "hey"
It's not like those movies
She fell first, he fell harder
I fell first, he fell never
It's not like those movies
Where they had a script to follow
My attempt would be in vain
My heart be hollow
It would all go off-track
You'd be to blame
Because I didn't want to look at myself the
way others claimed
We're not like those movies
With the slow-motion eye contact
Yet I remember the details of your gaze
and it's impact
I'd wonder if you laugh when I fall
Would you answer if I call
Do you stare when my back is turned
Do you feel like I'm someone who needsto be earned
Do you mute your surroundings to
hear my laugh
Do you think I'm your other half
When you hear my name do you think twice
Do you think being with me would pay
a huge price
It's not like those movies
You don't read my letters that I never gave
Because love is supposed to be
different nowadays
You don't read the messages I never send
Because I'm afraid of what's gonna happen
I'm not sure why I'm in love
With someone I can't have
If my younger self knew about this
She'd definitely laugh
"This is not a movie" She'd say
I would reply that she's right
But I'd still be in dismay

ПоезіяA bunch of poems I wrote on various occasions. I'm a beginner so it's not that good and some are not about me. Sometimes I think about others who have gone through way worse than me whenever I'm on my bed breaking down. I'm not someone whose parents...
