UNREQUITED LOVE

The pain i get from staring at you
The love i wish could be nothing but true
Your smile which ought to be soothing
Ever since you gave a response was nothing but wrenching
The curtness of your answer
Was the vanguard of this plethora
This plethora of pain
Buried in my heart, bound in chains
I wanted to let go
After you reiterated a loud NO
A NO that changed my thinking
Destabilized my rationality, and hurt the love am feeling
Profusely, my heart bled
Erroneously, my Black Pen inked red
I watched on from the shadows
My fleshy heart, pierced by so many arrows
But you remained in its Oblivion
I couldn't utter a word, despite friends' opinion
BUT THE BLAME BE ON ME
FOR NOT BEING WHO YOU THOUGHT I'D BE.
