Written: 11th Grade <br />About: DaNaizsha Perez <br /> <br />What was I thinking when night after night I prayed <br />Certainly it wasn't what I feel today <br />Blue shouldn't be the way someone feels but the color of the sky <br />And I definitely shouldn't be sitting here asking myself why <br />Why I am so upset with you <br />Why I'm questioning love I thought was true <br />Maybe it's the love I feel that gets me to this place <br />A place where I can't bear to even look you in the face <br />Without breaking down and giving into my fears <br />Without breaking down and giving into tears <br />The other poems used the word love synonymously with like <br />Seems those poems were written by a little tyke <br />This group of poems use love in its actual diction <br />And to say anything different would be complete fiction <br />It's just that I'm confused about what I should do <br />For conflicting emotions is what I feel about you <br />I can't do this right now and you know the reason why <br />I have to bottle up my love and say goodbye<br /><br />Jonathan Sewell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/21-conflicting-emotions/
