The Wonders of Young Love....

Isn't it amazing? Two people who will inevitably part by the time they're adults falling so deeply in love that they refuse to let go without a fight? But isn't it painful, when only one of those two young people feels that way... That's what I'm going through right now... I'm so deeply in love with Keith, and I know I am, I've never felt this way about another human being in my life. He's so damn perfect, it's depressing. I was looking through the poetry forum I write on, at annabegins.com, and I found this poem by "Believe In Me" called Beautiful For You, and I had to write it down. Maybe I'll show it to him in the car tomorrow. It goes like this:

I could be beautiful
If you let me
If you opened your eyes
And actually saw me
I could offer you some beauty
I could offer more than you could know
All words...
Meaningless
I breathe...
In time with you...
In my dreams,
When we sit close,
Your breath
Blowing down my spine
Intil it reaches
The endless deapths
Of my soul
Almost filled
With all the times you've beathed on me
I can't stop...
Any of these feelings
I can't stop wishing I was beautiful
For you

Isn't that beautiful? That's exactly how I feel about him. I just wish he could open his eyes and see ME, not the chic that he fucked, not the wierd girl from Art class. I wish he could see Alicia, the self-conscious quiet girl who wants him to love her so much, and who loves him with every breath she takes. Ya know? It's so painful, cause Meg says he's flirting with her when I'm not around and that scares me a lot, cause I don't want to loose him any more than I already have, which is basically almost completely. I'm holding on to him by a thin thread. Ya know? It's all so confusing and so depressing... I just want him to love me for who I am, is that so much to ask? I'm not a horrible person. Everybody keeps telling me that I'm a beautiful person, a strong person, and that I'm pretty and so loveable, but evidently I'm not or he would be able to see that. Ya know? Grrr!!! All I want is for the man of my dreams to love me back, damnit, is that so much to ask?
