\Fortitude-a-la-crumble
I can’t think straight;
My mind slumbers
Though wide awake.
Heart’s beating erratically
An unpleasant tattoo--
Flinching with pain and grief
Each time I think of you!
It hurts my eye
Yet the sting I could bear--
Than never look at you
It fills me with despair!
You cast a shadow
On my gloomy world--
But shadows I could endure
Than never see you at all.
When will you see me
The same way I do?
When will you glance my way
And feel the same way, too?
I know it’s foolishness
To hope and wish like this--
But bear it , I have to
Until these feelings cease.
Help me to realize
That we just could not fit;
Some things simply just
Just couldn’t, wouldn’t meet!
Keeping reins on what I feel
Gets harder everyday---
You might have noticed such
Though I keep them at bay.
Well, it’s simple enough:
I fell for you, that’s all---
No matter how I suppress it
I just can’t thwart the fall!
Like now, I’m missing you
So much that I could die;
Oh, when can I
Enough courage to say goodbye?
Loving you isn’t wise
Or even remotely right;
But why do I keep on wishing
You’d be here by my side?
My once sensible heart
Has just shattered into bits
When will this agony end…
Oh, Lord, do help me, Please.
