LOVE Poem: What I did, just for him not to feel the same., by Jessica Bloom

For the first guy I’ve ever liked,
I dreamed of marrying him in Disney
I planned out a wedding and everything
But of course nothing happened, I was three
He thought I was a weirdo which I was
And threw out all the cards I gave him

The second guy I’ve ever liked
I fell for him HARD
I became friends with his friends
I was pretty much a wildcard
I fell for too long and eventually
He told his friends that he didn’t like me

The third guy I’ve ever liked I drove INSANE
I watched baseball and came to every single game
He loved baseball more than he could love me
I was too blind to see that unfortunately

The fourth guy I’ve ever liked was my friend from school
About 6 foot 4, and everyone thought “he’s cool.”
I learned all the tricks and the games in lacrosse
Until he found a girl, she bullied me, then hope was lost

The fifth guy I’ve liked, I have nothing bad to say
He’s so precious and kind, and good in everyway
Except for the fact that he’s so handsome I didn’t stand a chance
He met a girl named Lily and she’s his date to the dance
For this guy I didn’t do much except trying to look pretty,
Because I started comparing myself to Lily.
I realized through him I need to grow up from fantasy
Because boys like him will never love me.

The sixth guy I’ve liked was a pain in my ass
If life was an airplane he’d be in first class
Tight end linebacker of my emotions
I studied his religion and tried to
make love potions
He was even worse than guy three
Was, is, and will forever be

The seventh guy I’ve liked is who I like now
He’s also out of reach, but closer somehow
I’ve started eating healthier, hoping to slim down
But that just leads to late night indulging
I like him so much but he’s in love with someone else
So i just sit here waiting like an elf on the shelf
Wishing he’ll see something in myself
He’s too flirty with me to set me
And I don’t think I want to get set free
