"You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams."


As time goes by words are left unspoken,
But baby these words have not been broken.
Torn from yet another fight,
But we both have every right.
We walk we talk we even dream,
And everything else inbetween.
Just doesnt seem to matter anymore,
All that matters is you walking through the door.
I wait up all night, not even knowing if I have the right,
To stay and stand or hold on to you tight.
I don't know what to say or do,
All I know is i really want you.
But I can't call you home to me, because all I want to really see,
Is you go off and be happy with or without me as long as your free.
See the world from a different point of view,
See what really interests you.
When you want to return once more,
Ill be here waiting forever yours.

Hi! I like this a lot! I love the fact that even though you (the speaker) want to be with him, to reiterate the fact that you really just want to see that he's happy. It's a sweet and different concept. The only lines that I wasn't sure of were the final four - they didn't feel like they really fit into the poem as well as the others. (It's very likely that I misread them, if so, disregard that!) I love how I could feel your longing for him throughout the poem, but you don't want to lose him as a friend. You really care about him. It's nice to see that. Great job, and happy writing!
