Ruby Maia Renton 2008 (Laporte)
You can’t look at me with those eyes like there are unsaid words between us
You can’t hold my hand like you never wanna let go
You can’t converse with me and tell me it will always be me
You can’t keep hold of me asking for a spark
You can’t hug me and hold me and tell me you never wanna let go
You can’t expect me to keep all of our promises
You can’t do all of these things and expect me not to love you a little more each time
You can’t expect me not to fall when i already have
Fallen for a person i can never have
About this poem
This poem is about a person who you have fallen for at the wrong time, and never know if they’re will ever be a right time
