Poetry: Love unrequited

by catherine carrigan

Created on: November 11, 2008

Please read the email, that I wrote.

I send them everyday, and I hope.

I haven't seen you in so long, what is it I did wrong;

Please read the email that i wrote.

Please read the card that I sent.

I tried to keep it funny, so you might relent.

maybe if you see how much i care, I'll look up and see you there;

Please read the card that i sent.

Please come and see me once again.

I always thought that I would be, if nothing else, your friend;

Please come and see me, by and by.

You don't know how much this makes me cry.

Please come and see me, once again.

When I looked into your eyes, and saw your soul,

You gave yourself away, and I saw hope-

I saw more than you wanted me to know.

And pain goes through my heart like a sword.

Please, look at me now, once again.

I think God looks down at us and laughs,

And He amuses Himself with our gaffes.

I love one of His own-

now my heart calls despair home,

Please read the email that I wrote.

Winter is the season of the heart.

that must from the one it loves, forever be apart;

my world has turned to ice, it is you I sacrifice,

please read the email, that i wrote.

Come back to me, and give me hope.
