Array ( [sid] => 13245 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => My Affection, My Affliction [time] => 2003-02-24 22:40:00 [hometext] => I think un-requited love is the best form of inspiration around. [bodytext] => Where is he now, oh he’s in the other room
But I am in the kitchen, he’s in the study, I assume
Maybe I should go and see
My inner mentor does agree
And there he is, captured, still and silent
I pose myself, my nervous twitch becoming violent
Surely he knows by now, I think that he would guess
“He knows” My inner critic does acquiesce
My burning cheeks, my heart pounding surely he can hear
What’s this a look, a glance, my inner guru says to persevere,
Leave now, its blatantly becoming plain
That your not there to what Television, there’s other goals at aim.
I shut the door behind me and return to my friends
I think I have to go now, but later I will make amends
Im outside now, im not in there with him
The midnight chill is bloody cold and the path ahead looks grim
But then I think of our meeting are unspoken glance
And I feel all warm and tingly as I think of our romance
Not yet, you see, not yet, but I might go round tomorrow
I think there was a top of my friends I might quite like to borrow
Did you see it, his smile, I can’t believe it came my way
I’ve seen it a million time times in my dreams but never by the light of day
He’s so perfect, he’s so witty, my beautiful desire
Who’s brown eyes burn with flicks of amber like embers from a fire
Why would he want me, when I saw his last flame
Who stepped right of a movie screen and stole some normal girls name
I saw them together the other day, the whole frame of nature broke
I sat down and bit back my tears, which I tried not to provoke
I saw them through the window, his arm placed around her
All I could think of was my defeat and how I could deter.
But then he deserves her, and I would be happy if he was to
And after all he would never be mine, this I can construe
And so its nearly morning now, he has consumed me all night
My mind has gone blank and there is no more Shakespeare to recite
But oh I adore him, this fickle, endless want
Which orbits deep within me and leaves me nonchalant
If only he knew that someone adored him, but alas I will never tell
So I must fight these pointless thoughts and try not to rebel
There is no point in wishing, but I say this with conviction
I have never felt more alive, when I think of my affliction

*sigh* what can i say? its so cute how much you long for this guy...my only question is: what xeactly is holding you back, princess? if you dont try or at least tell him, he may NEVER have the chance to tell you he feels the same way...take a leap at what you want and dont accept no for an answer...he's in your heart and your mind...dont let it end at that, take him in your arms...good luck princess...my wishes are with you...if he only knew... :O) by the way, beautiful poem
