2018 entries (pt. 2)

from the start i knew it would never be

i lacked the strength to make you love me

i wonder if that’s a talent others attain

and for me, i must face the solitary pain

i guess i liked you, i did see the best in you

after all this time i never lost that view

i wanted to make it all happen so fast

considering the future and neglecting the past

choosing to live in my own make-believe

which became a dream i didn’t want to leave

and before long i found myself stuck

forcing myself to remain out of luck

until i took a step back and realized one thing

i forced myself to stay and chose to cling

but if true love is desired by oh so many

why do i feel as the worth of a penny
