Her Love

To Bre

I love her, but I know that she loves him,
Still I am willing to go out on a limb,
For her I consistently profess my love,
No one else do I place above,
She tells me that she loves me,
But she still calls him her hubby,
It hurts each and every time,
For her my heart beats and sings a rhyme,
When the world goes quiet and she is in my arms,
I once again fall for her beauty and her charm,
I think of her every single day and night,
For her I would put up the biggest fight,
I would do whatever it could possibly take,
But no matter how much for her I ache,
I cannot fight what is for her to decide,
So I love her from over here on the side,
Waiting ever so patiently for her to let me know,
Which one of us it is that she needs to let go,
I’d be lying if I said that I’m not selfish what I hope is the outcome,
For if it is not me that she chooses I will be numb,
Though I would rather she be happy with him,
Then to be unhappy without him,
In the end it’s her happiness that I truly want,
So I try to stay stoic and nonchalant,
Even if on the inside I yearn for it to be me,
It does me no good if it’s not the way her heart decides to see.

(2014)

Starting to question how much longer I can wait, feeling like I need reciprocation, even is it is not going to be from her.
