You will never quite know
How much you impress me
You will never quite know
How much you move me
You'll never understand
Why I'm still in love
You're so cool and confident
Speak false pride and praise
You act so tough and "manly"
But underneath I see you
You try to run and hide
Don't you know that hurts me?
I want you to come find me
Look for the diamond in me
Don't make me come find you
Please come find me
Look to know me, only truth
Nothing hidden, no lies
I want you to want me
I want you to draw me out
See me for the real new me
Love me for the one I've become
You see me as a child
Young, innocent, and still foolish
What could I possibly do or say
To show you I've changed those ways
I've waited it out for so long
How much longer will it hurt
Rejection is salt in a cut
You know how to pour it on
Do you see me still standing here?
Waiting for you to see me again
When will you appreciate me?
See what I've done for you in past
Never have I spoken ill
Forgiveness has been granted you
See me now and not her
She doesn't deserve the best...you
Can't you see that it's always been me
Always here always near
I'm not shy, I'm not quiet
I just don't want to bug you
You all happy is me forever happy
But the heart can hurt so bad
My heart hides for the fear
The fear of always rejection
You mean so much to me
And yet you'll never see it
You will never quite know
How much you impress me
You will never quite know
How much you move me
You'll never understand
Why I'm still in love
You will never know

Britt, I just wanted to thank you for every comment you've ever made! You are such an uplifting and joyful person and it makes me so happy when you comment such lovely things!
I used to write (especially poems) a lot but then fell into some dark times and couldn't find the energy or self-confidence to try again till last night. All my poems are first draft...I never re-edit them. Hearing a sweet comment like yours means a lot because I know that since you don't personally know me that you won't compliment it just to compliment it and make me feel good :) You are such a joy and I love following your blog and reading your comments here! God bless you!
