I Had To Walk Away by Leah06

You had just moved here
You were a new student to our school
I met you in a class
And thought you were cool.
I took you in
Showed you around
Introduced you to friends
And you pushed me to the ground.
You started to ignore me
Like I wasen't even there
After everything I did for you
You didn't even care.
You became "the hottie" of our group
All the girls liked you,you liked them too
You always flirted and played around with them
Well I've got news for you.
I've liked you since I met you
I just didn't tell
I kept my feelings to myself
And hid back in my shell.
I was slowly coming around
To tell you how I felt
But I was scared you were going to hurt me
And that I would break down and melt.
So in my shell i stayed
Watching you go by
Whith out a clue in the world
Or even a friendly hi.
I finally just got sick of it
With them all over you
So I pulled you aside
It was time I talked to you.
I told you that you hurt me
By shutting me out
By never noticing me
When I would sit and pout.
How I really liked you
But I am nothing compared to them
They are petals to a rose
and I am but the stem.
When we came to silence
I looked up to see if you had anything to say
You were looking straight through me
So I had to walk away.

The lady has Character and Her Self-Respect.
Leah06;

You are winning lot's of fans around here with your work. This one is a favorite of mine. "and I am but the steam." that is a great line! It was very well set up for its meaning with "They are petals to a rose."

You capture a lot of feeling, perhaps, not his, but, you kept your self respect. Good For You! I believe, this poem is a true-like experience? Sounds real which is a basic, for good work. This guy is another candidate for the Seeing Heart Doctor, or is this the same guy? I see where some of your poems may be connected to each other, like a chapter in your life.

respect
It's works like this that I have a great deal of respect for. When people aren't afraid to put that kind of emotion into a mere writing. Though I don't comment on every poem, I do read them all Leah06. I've enjoyed them all so far.

the sadness...:(
yes yes...i've been through similar circumstances. don't fret! people these days are sometimes naive of how another person is feeling about something...what may seem not-so-important to them, may be extremely important to you. ah, the turmoils of life...great poem, by the way!!
