Do you Love Me?

Nathan Lewis 2004 (Newark California)



Some days I just sit and think,
Do you love me?
I feel as though I may sink
In the answers that I see.

Do you hide it deep inside,
Never allowing anything out
Everything so far denied
You know not what about

These emotions truly mean?
The pain I feel when around,
You never seem to glean.
And in the sorrows, I feel drowned

For the question still remains
Do you love me?
The answer I expect it pains.
And this you guarantee.

About this poem

Just emotions I feel about giving too much energy to someone who never returns it.
