What Are You Looking For...?

I Am... : A Poem



I am lost
Starving to death
In the loneliness 
That is me without you

I am afraid
Running from the truth
And escaping to lies
Which must be told

I am alone
Surrounded by everyone
All of my friends
But cut off from you

I am sad
Saddened by the truth
The horrible truth
That we can't be "us"

I am terrified
Shaking and sobbing
Inconsolable almost always
'Cause I don't want to lose you

I am flustered
Blushing and fidgeting
Wondering to myself
How you can get to me this way

I am nervous
Used to knowing what will happen
But now always surprised
And always on the edge

I am loved
Never thought it could happen
Not sure I wanted it to
But I wouldn't trade it for the world








My dearest love to whom this poem is dedicated:

I want you to know that you are everything I could ever ask for. You are my everything. If I may say something cliched, "If I had to choose between breathing and loving you, I would use my last breath to say 'I love you'."

My darling, this feeling is new and exciting and not going anywhere soon. I love you so much!

Love,
Amber

  1. "I really like this. It expresses multiple emotions, many that others have felt and are therefor able to relate to, and it's one of those poems that don't have a 'dark side', which is amazing to find."
