Written: 10th Grade <br />About: Cyani Velez <br /> <br />I have to tell you how I feel <br />I have to tell you for my heart to heal <br /> <br />I think I'm falling in love with you <br />Now I'm wanting to be your boo <br /> <br />I'm trying to hold my feelings back <br />But subtlety is what I lack <br /> <br />I'm pouring my heart into every word <br />Making the most beautiful poem you've ever heard <br /> <br />I look into your eyes and see into your soul <br />Just one day with you would be my goal <br /> <br />Go for what's in your heart is what they say <br />But I'm too used to keeping my feelings at bay <br /> <br />Time after time people ask what I see in you <br />If they could only see you how I do <br /> <br />Why should I write this if we'll never be <br />Why should I write this if you think nothing of me <br /> <br />Another day passes and my feelings for you grow stronger <br />I feel that I can't keep them inside any longer <br /> <br />This is the third poem I've written without telling you what I feel <br />The third time thinking if being with you could be real <br /> <br />The first person I loved broke my heart <br />She threw me aside and I fell apart <br /> <br />When my heart she did sever <br />I vowed never to love anyone ever <br /> <br />That was before I met you <br />And wanted to become your boo <br /> <br />As eloquent as my poems are <br />They don't do you any justice by far <br /> <br />Just two days ago we stood face to face <br />And just like that my heart and brain began to race <br /> <br />Just then I wanted to let it out <br />And tell you what I'd been holding in without a doubt <br /> <br />Instead I just stood there and tensed up <br />Feeling just as lost as a young pup <br /> <br />I blew my chance to say what was needed <br />It was like I wanted to be held and leaded <br /> <br />So I'll say now what I didn't have the balls to say <br />Cyani Monique Velez I love you in every single way<br /><br />Jonathan Sewell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/14-saying-it-now/
