You*

My heart has been given to so many people

Torn and patched

A botched job this time

Could easily kill me

I love her so much

And yet

I cannot speak

I must be dumb forever

Or I will be shunned

Shut out by my friends

Who also love me

Just as much

I saw you look at me

The other day

scan my body

Process it in your mind

Moulding me like the putty

I am

In your hands.

Why is it so hard to cry

Upon your shoulder?

You're so near to me

But really there is a barrier between us

Do you see me

Like I see you?

Do you laugh in your heart,

Bathed in sunshine

With one smile from me?

As I melt

When you look in my direction?

So many questions

You could give me wings to fly

If you would only notice me

If you would only love me

Like my hidden heart loves you
