Love One-Sided (C) 3-13-2013

I once woke up beside her Twice our lips touched for the first time, And my tongue fondled her soul. Many times have I embraced her Held her petite body in my arms, dreading the thought of letting her go I've explored her mind, her past, her emotions, through her book The journal she keeps that display the events in her past that has molded her I've shared hard truths with her Hopin to shed light on the darkness that has once overtaken us both I told her that I love her... I've shown her that I love her And though she doesn't believe me, I always will. Cursed with the stipulation of every guy before me She deems my lust for her isn't for her at all But the challenge she bestows upon me I do not lust for her, I crave her, Not merely in the physical But in the spiritual, The emotional, the mental, yes in the physical, and all is literal I'd place myself atop Everest and hurl myself to certain death If that means she may then begin to love me.... But she claims she never will, She can never be loved nor love anyone But she had already told a tale... For I love her, and if she were to open her mind to the possibility That 1 in a million chance that she can love me too How we would soar above the heavens in ecstasy I'd treat her as a servant does a goddess All that is mine shall be hers, even the world and all of its riches I'd do anything for her, although unlikely I've sought the holy and felt temptation by the unholy for help My God is more powerful than any being in existence And my God is love so I beg him to overpower her stubbornness And strong will... Even with my heart splattering before her It isn't enough... She believes we must start anew... As friends, possibly work back to what we not only once had But twice, and once, and many... Can we really pretend to be friends again? My heart is doomed, I've heard this story before, My future is as bright as coal My fate, A string so thin, the gentle pull from an infant would tear it in half But I'll travel to the deepest areas of hell and back for her... Because I love her...
