Love of the Phantom


Because I love you I must say this

I would do anything for you to feel the same.

Cupid shot his arrows but I am sure he missed

For when you look at me it is a face of shame.

 

I try to show you that all I do is for you

But you take my love for granted.

So I must say that I am through.

You never acknowledge me and I cannot stand it.

 

So with my love in a sarcastic manner

I tell you that you are phenomenal.

To take my love as meanigless banter

And I'll make your words inaudible.

 

This is my farewell for all to see

You are the reason my depression will be the death of me.

<p>The poem above was a submission in order to qualify for the &quot;Because I Love You&quot; Scholarship. It entales an event where my love was cast aside and not seen by the young women I wanted to be with. Thank you for reading.</p>
