I do not know if it's true, <br />the way I feel inside, <br />but when I look into your eye's, <br />one thought comes to mind. <br /> <br />To me it just seems so surreal, <br />the beauty that you hide, <br />but when you smile it's hidden no more, <br />it shines through like a light. <br /> <br />I'm lost inside darkest brown, <br />so deep, loving and pure, <br />when I sit and picture that, <br />there's one thing that I'm sure. <br /> <br />We were always meant to be, <br />even when we pretend, <br />that you can't love because of pain, <br />yet I feel your heart mend. <br /> <br />Every time I touch you, <br />you try to shrink away, <br />yet still I feel you drawing closer, <br />each and every day. <br /> <br />When I lay my head to rest, <br />the last thing that I see, <br />is your smile like the stars, <br />shining back at me. <br /> <br />I've tried myself to be false, <br />to everything I feel, <br />I tell you this 'cause I can't lie, <br />I know that this is real. <br /> <br />So whatever happened in the past, <br />is where it's going to stay, <br />I am here and going nowhere, <br />until my dying day.<br /><br />Peri Morgan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-way-i-feel-23/
