In the Light of Day

**I found this, changed the ending, and added some lines, so if I could give you a knife to stab at it I would. Have fun

Everyone knows, the classic line,
"There’s no getting over you, I’ve tried."
Well this is my truth and this is my pain,
this is my pen starting over again

I don’t want to hold your hand.
I just want you to understand,
I’m not gunna plan for the movie endings.
I refuse to write on the positive side,
I’m about honesty, and loves not for me to decide.

I’ve heard it all before, I’m guilty of it to.
I’m not playing this game, but you refuse to hear it.
I’m walking away, but you refuse to see it,
so ill write my future and force you to read it

I want you to chase after my feet,
and I want to feel your heart skip a beat.
Let me hear those eyes scream out to me,
as I walk into a room.
I don’t want to hear those songs come true,
I just want a simple, "I love you".

I’m not exactly patient, so let me be brief,
all of these decisions are killing me.
I’ve stated my wants and ill just say one more,
"I want you to want me"
Stated best by the eighties top hits.

After all this,
and once everything’s been said and done,
I’ll be honest.
Seeing as how I’ve never lied to you and I won’t start now.
In the light of day,
I truly believe there wasn’t any other way.
This is what I chose to write,
Hate it if you need to, burn it, if that’s what pleases you.
But please know, a part of me will always find a way to love you.

Amazing. I thought it was very expressive and emotional.
i absolutely loved reading it and i would want to read more of these poems.
i was wondering if some typos in your poem where puposeful or accidental. Maybe re-edit a little?
there seems to be alot of self-experience in this poem as it is written with such realistic feelings.
your poem is one of the best i read so far this month.

Empowering, and not too wordy. I like XD
