The One Who Sees The Real Me

in Depression Poems by Teens

I know so many people,
But do they know me?
They recognize the face,
but that's all they ever see.

I know so many people,
But do they know me?
They recognize the face,
but that's all they ever see.

They see the shell they think is me,
but they don't see the stuff inside,
the things that are buried,
the things I try to hide.

There are things under the
makeup, clothes, and the style.
There are secrets hidden
under that big phony smile.

Inside, my heart
is thundering like a storm,
and if I were to break,
it'd come pouring like a swarm.

I dwell where it's dark,
wet, and cold,
and I think many thoughts
that nobody knows.

Then there's that one person
who in my soul can shine a light
and discover all sins
hidden in my eyes.

He comforts, he cautions,
and I say, "Don't tell."
He is the one who knows me,
the me under the Shell.

Forever Love Poem

in Boyfriend Poems

You're my rock that held me up yesterday,
Listening to every word I have to say.

You're my shoulder that's getting me through today.

You're my rock that held me up yesterday,
Listening to every word I have to say.

You're my shoulder that's getting me through today.
Right by my side is where you stay.

You're my strength that'll lead me through tomorrow.
You have taken away all my sorrow.

You're the light that's showing me the way.
Right by your side is where I'll stay.

You're the reason I'm not alone.
My reservations you've overthrown.

You've shown me right from wrong.
Because of you, now I'm strong.

In your arms I have found my home.
All your love for me you've shown.

I will wait for you, no matter how long,
'Cause side by side is where we belong.

Right by my side I hope you stay,
Until my very last day.

3. What Do I See In You?

Top 500 151
- By Shelagh Bullman
- Published: September 2010
in Sweet Love Poems

What do I see in you? Oh boy. Oh boy,
I see mountains and rivers, a lifetime of joy,
I see the sun shining on the greyest day,
I see clouds of silver lining my way,

What do I see in you? Oh boy. Oh boy,
I see mountains and rivers, a lifetime of joy,
I see the sun shining on the greyest day,
I see clouds of silver lining my way,

What do I see in you? Oceans of blue,
Colourful rainbows, morning dew,
Trees of glory displaying leaves of green.
I see goodness and beauty in all living things.

I hear creatures of darkness prowling the night,
But I'm safe in your arms as you hold me real tight.
I feel the whispers of the wind entwining my soul.
I feel you breathing, that makes me whole.

I hear the rain falling and the sun on my face.
I feel the shadows of darkness as me you embrace.
I feel happiness and laughter, tears and sorrow,
But without you, my love, there would be no tomorrow.

I feel thunder and lightning whenever you're near.
I feel whispers of love wind brings to my ear,
But of all of the things that nature may bring,
It's your love I cherish above everything.

Poem Of Love And Adoration

in Falling in Love Poems

They say silence is Golden,
I believe it is true,
Because in that Golden silence,
my thoughts occur of you.

They say silence is Golden,
I believe it is true,
Because in that Golden silence,
my thoughts occur of you.

You are the flame in my candle
that lights the darkness of my room,
You are the scented flowers
that makes my heart full bloom.

You are the butterflies
that flicker in my stomach all day long,
When I know I will be holding you
before my day is done.

You are the stars that shimmer and shine,
You light up the skies above
In this Golden silence
it's truly you I love.

You are the thunder of the night,
your lightning strikes whenever,
Into my soul that makes me whole,
and excites my heart forever.

You are my paradise, my oceans wide,
My mountains standing tall,
So in this Golden Silence
I love you most of all.

Thank You To Boyfriend Poem

You are the sun that shines brightly throughout my day.
You are the gravity that holds me down in every way.

You are the sun that shines brightly throughout my day.

You are stars that glimmer oh so bright.

You are the oxygen that keeps me alive.
You are my heart that beats inside.
You are the blood that flows through me.
You are the only guy I can see.
You have the voice of when a mockingbird sings.
You are my everything.

You are my one and only.
You stop me from being so lonely.
We plan our future as if we have a clue.
I never want to lose you.
I want you to be my husband, and I want to be your wife.
I want to be with you for the rest of my life.

Sometimes I feel as if it was bad to fall in love at first sight,

Sometimes I feel as if you don't care,
But other moments it feels like you'll always be there.
Sometimes I feel as if we just weren't meant to be,
But other moments it feels like you're the only one for me.
Sometimes I feel as if this is all a game,
But other moments it feels like I should share your last name.
Sometimes I feel as if you don't notice me,
But other moments it feels like it's only me you see.
Sometimes I feel as if you wish we weren't together,
But other moments it feels like we will be forever.
Sometimes I feel as if I should just give up,
But other moments it feels like you are my good luck.
Overall, I understand we will have some ups and downs,
But despite the doubts I have and bad times we go through, I appreciate the love we have now.

At times I may get mad at you.

but hey, just know that I just want your attention.

At times I may get mad at you.
Without any reason,
at times I might yell,
but hey, just know that I just want your attention.
I know at times I'm hard to deal with,
but please just try.
I know that I can be hard-headed,
but one kiss from you makes me soft.
I can't be perfect, and I will never be,
but I promise you one thing -
no matter where life take us,
I will never leave or give up on you.
I will always stay by your side and
assure you that everything will be okay.
I will walk with you hand in hand
then smile and wipe your sorrow away.
I will never ever in a million years
ask for someone else
because no matter how hard they all try to compete with you,
they will never win...
because my heart will always belong to you.

When I First Met You - A Love Poem For Him

in Boyfriend Poems

When I first met you,
I felt like I had known you forever,
telling you my secrets
and what I didn't want ever.

When I first met you,
I felt like I had known you forever,
telling you my secrets
and what I didn't want ever.
You listened to me.
I bet you thought I'd never end.
Who would have thought
we would become more than just friends?
Over a period of time
I got to know the real you.
A boy, so caring and gentle,
with a heart so true.
You've survived your life
with hurt and loneliness by your side.
I told you I'd never leave
because of the feelings I have inside.
I know you
like no one I have ever known,
and sometimes I wonder
what I'd do if you were gone?
So I have decided
time answers all.
If it is meant to be,
time will remove the wall.
I love the way we are together.
You can always make me smile.
Will it ever really be forever?
I guess I will have to wait a while.
Time will reveal what lies ahead,
but always remember
what I have said.
Meeting you has changed my life,
and I really love you so.
The feelings I feel for you,
I am never letting go.
Remember me always
and I will, too.
I always think of
me and you.

Poem About Falling For The Right Person

in Falling in Love Poems

I'm standing on the edge
My toes hanging off the side
The wind blows sweetly
Rustling my hair

I'm standing on the edge
My toes hanging off the side
The wind blows sweetly
Rustling my hair
And relaxing me
Causing me to lean towards the void
All around me
I hear his voice whispering
"You're beautiful" and
"I'll always be there for you"
I close my eyes
And I can feel his hand in mine
And his arms wrapped around me
Then my head is filled with memories
Of his lips
Pressed against mine
In the softest manner
And then
I'm
Falling
I've fallen in love with him
And it's the most exuberant feeling
The air rushes around me
And makes me lightheaded
It's like I'm flying
And nothing can stop me
All I hear is his voice
Telling me I'm the only one for him
Then...
He
Leaves
I hit the ground
Which seems to materialize underneath me
And for months I lay there
Broken
Hurt
And crying
People try to help me up
But I don't let them
All I can think of
Is him
How could he make me fall for him
When he had no intention
Of catching me

Then you come along
You mend my brokenness
And help me to my feet
And before I know it
I'm on top of the building again
And yet again
The wind blows
Trying to push me off the edge
But this time
I brace myself
I don't want to fall
And get hurt
A second time
I try to back away from the edge
But something stops me
I hear your voice
Calling to me from below
"I will never break your heart
I swear"
Slowly
I move toward the side of the building
I picture the times we've talked for hours
The times you've held me when I cried
The times you stuck by my side
When no one else would
"I'll never hurt you like he did"
You whisper this in my ear
As I drift off to sleep one night
I never remembered until now
Then
I
Fall
And yet again
The feeling is amazing
Only this time
It doesn't end with brokenness
Instead I land in your arms
And
In your heart

My love for you is uncontrollable.
My feelings for you are unstoppable.
Can't go a day without thinking about you.
Without you, I'm not complete.
With you, my heart finds its beat.

My heart is filled with joy because of your love.
You are my strength, and without you I'm weak.
Before you came into my life, I was
Hopeless, lonely, sad.
When you showed up, I knew that you were sent to me.

You are always here to cheer me up.
Your smile makes me shy,
And sometimes I wonder where you have been all this while,
But I'm just glad that I managed to get you in my life...
YOU FILL MY HEART WITH JOY!

In your arms,

My once empty heart
now with love does fill.

Your eyes tell me
that you'll love me every day.
No matter what may come,
you'll be there to stay.

I tell you everything
and never with a lie:
all my worldly secrets
and everything that once made me cry.

Everything in my past,
with you I can forget it all.
I know I can trust you
to catch me if I fall.

how much love I have for you.
Then maybe, just maybe,
you'd feel it too.

Conversations we shared are hard to forget.
Always kind, never harsh,
Yet never afraid to speak from the heart.

If it were easy, it wouldn't be real.
From any hurt you could heal.
I know it's cheesy and you'd probably laugh,
But I am ever grateful that you crossed my path.

You keep running from the truth; you know it's true.
You think I am crazy for loving you.

You think I am your best gift of all,
but I wish you could understand - without you, I stand 10 inches tall.

I never believed in the saying "opposites attract,"
but the second I met you, it became a proven fact.

I am cold as ice, while you're hot as fire.
As long as I live, you're my one and only desire.

You're not just my want but also my need.
You're like my personal drug; for you I plead.

I am the happiest person whenever you're near,
but the second you leave, I shed a lonely tear.

Love is a funny thing
We'll never understand,
But hear this truth ring:
I'm in love with you.

These butterflies,
Shy smiles,
Late nights.
Thoughts are constantly
About you.

I can't tell you
All the times
This heart beats faster,
Even when you're out of view.

Always in my thoughts,
Always in my dreams.
A life without you would
Tear me apart at the seams.

It's you who keeps me up all night
And gets me through the day.
It seems to me that there
Is only one thing left to say.

I've said it already,
But to make sure you know it's true,
I'll say how I feel:
I'm completely in love with you.

Softly teasing my eyes apart.
I feel your arms tighten around
Sealing yet another
Non existent space...
I turn around to face you
Feeling blessed for the millionth time.
I stare at your sleeping self
Murmuring a silent prayer of thanks...
At a dark dark time you were sent to me
To shed some light on my weakening being.
I held on tight to you secure hands
As you pulled me out of a painful mess...
I found the smile I thought I had lost
I found love so serene and pure
I found your eyes so full of care
As it healed so well my bruised soul..
I kiss your brow slow and soft
Anxious not to wake you up...
Tears form spelling my love
I see your eyes open up
Just as a drop runs down my cheek
I feel your hands brushing it off...
That I know is the art of love
I was gifted with
And eternally crowned...

That is so touching, so I want you to hold onto that boy and never let go because guys like him are no longer available. Love him like he does. That is my advice to you.
