Popular Poems About Unrequited Love

I've loved you too long
let you live rent free
under my skin
while pretending
the fantasy of you
sates my soul

And every time
you leave me
I tell myself
it'll be the last time
but it never is
it never is

Goddess knows I'm weak
chasing every high
and every low
you've ever had to offer

And I think
I think
I would be better off
if I could grieve
everything we were
and everything we weren't

In my most desperate moments
I wish I could let...

Sunlight shade turned
your face from blue into wine,
how I drunk from the barrels of your beauty

Hungover, even too shy,
to leave my desires on poetry walls
the third pillow was always too far
too far, to hold you in the night

Hell, I fucking hate you sometimes
because you, love
are everything I deserve
in my weakest moments
you remind me how much
I hate the base nature of myself

I'm too quick to anger
and too quick to let it go
because love forgives
love forgives

And I'm...
I'm too quick to blinding desire
so when you found me wet and aching
I wanted you to fuck me
into oblivion
right there and then
but I was never going
to be that lucky

So instead I watch you
fumble around me ...

it's an act of war
between head and heart
still in love
fighting emotions
every single day
but always losing

driven crazy inside
just when things seem real
matters get outta hand
left with illusions
clarity another lie
like growing vines

no rainbows
or fluffy unicorns here
not enough light
don't tell her
how you feel
for rejection awaits
