Falling Out of Love

How much I wish I could fall out of love

If love is so lovely, then why does it hurt?

Is love really worth it when all one feels is pain?


I see you, tall and dark brown hair, 

Towering over the multitudes of people behind, infront, and aside you.

I can hear my heart pounding from a single glance towards your way

I sometimes feel that I could faint from such intense beating.

But as I admire you, all I feel is sadness.


Sadness that was once the sun to the day. 

Sadness that was once the star of my night.As I smell the sweet aroma of flowers at the store, 

I try my best to walk away. 

As the smell reminds me of what love should smell like.

For the smell reminds me of the purity of the love that was once there.

Sadness is all I feel on Valentine's day.

Sadness is what I'll forever feel.


The author's comments:

I am a shy and quiet person. For the most part I am indecisive about coming to terms in a situation, but the situation being talked about in this poem is a situation where I am not indecisive about how I feel about this person. I know how I feel.
