REJECTION


             

 

What is the use of trying?

As it always ends up in failure

I tried so hard to get your attention

I love you with all my heart

But you do not feel the same...

Maybe I am not giving you any satisfaction

I really cannot take this rejection

I love the way you say my name

Can you not see that it is just a videogame?

What we have, I want to continue

Now I have to live with the fact that there is no more us, no more you

I love you from the bottom of my heart, this much is true

You do not seem to be interested in the word love

You are afraid that word will stick to you

Like a hand to a glove

I treat you with respect

I am constantly crawling back to you after every reject

You do not understand how much I need you in my life

You might think that the relationship will amount to nothing

But I have faith that you are my future wife

So let it be and develop into something…

Maybe my efforts are in vain

Not knowing what the future might hold for us drives me also insane

I know I might have a calm demeanor

But inside my heart it is aching,

The feeling is of that of a huge tremor

It may seem like all hope is lost

I shall wait for you patiently

I shall not give up that easily

until then…
