Does love need a title ? [Part 2] (I hate titles)
[ This is a rewrite/sequel of my first poem that I wrote a bit more than 4 years ago. Here is the original : http://deepundergroundpoetry.com/poems/162525-does-love-need-a-title ]
I used to be only your friend
But then I got to be much more
I thought that glee would never end
Until you struck me to the core
Now I know
What you're thinking
Now I know
How you're feeling
And I don't know
Why I'm smiling
But no one knows
That I'm bleeding
And it doesn't matter
How deep the wound
'Cause what stays after
Is the flower that bloomed
Thou art anon, a part of me,
And I believe that I'm ready
To finally accept thee
Platonically
Now that I've learned
The lessons you taught,
I finally have
The answers I've sought.
And all I want,
Is us to be
No strings attached
Just you, and me.
Never will I ever,
Ask anything from you
Except for your laughter
To stay true
What we have is so much more
Than this bleak thing that we call "Love"
I want us to be like before,
When I'd roll while you drove.
I won't give up on us
No matter what the future's made of
And if that's what it takes
I will give up on love.
But first, I'd just want to tell you that...
I still love you.
I used to be only your friend
But then I got to be much more
I thought that glee would never end
Until you struck me to the core
Now I know
What you're thinking
Now I know
How you're feeling
And I don't know
Why I'm smiling
But no one knows
That I'm bleeding
And it doesn't matter
How deep the wound
'Cause what stays after
Is the flower that bloomed
Thou art anon, a part of me,
And I believe that I'm ready
To finally accept thee
