The One

You feel like your in a crowded room
But no one can hear you screaming
They think your fine, they all just assume
But inside its terryfing

Like a war wageing on
And you try to be strong
But you flail your arms, as you try to grab on
For that one thing you long

Maybe your not good enough for her
Or you just dont have what it takes
You feel that it gets harder and harder
And she just keeps raising the stakes

And you know that you could spend your life with her
An entire life by her side
But she wont take, what I have to offer
And it hurts my pride

To know that I will never be good enough
For the one that I love
And that I will just have to be tough
And have to suppress my love

For the woman that makes me feel like I'm flying
She will never know how much she means to me
I just have to stop lying
To myself, becuase it is hard to see

That I will never have what it takes
To have her heart
I have made so many mistakes
And that is only the start...

Hey Brandon, its me Ari..I LOVE IT..its so real and on the dot that I almost cried..thank you for putting your beautiful work on here and I know that you are already a poet from what I have seen..this might not make a lot of sense right now, but i think that you are trying harder than anyone I have met to get the good work out there. you understand your feelings and embrass them. you know how you feel and you arent afraid to show it. i am so lucky to have someone who cares enough about themself and their friends; as a friend. i love you as a friend and a fellow poet and i know that you can and will make it far.

As a mom it saddens me to know that anyone at such a young age should feel so much pain. Let alone having that someone be my own son.
Your words are touching. I think you are just beginning to blossom as a poet and I look forward to watching your work bloom inot the beautiful flowers tha I know it will be.
