I've Been Caught

• Description: This is a feeling i once felt about a guy, and a lot of my poems are about them. He left me for another girl, even though my love burnt deep for him. It still does.

I've been caught swimming in his eyes again.
Holding my heart so it doesn't break in his presence.
I've been known to have to steady my breathing at his smile,
as my own returns with red cheeks.
As the subject of my never ending sentences, he calls upon pauses that
should not be there.
As my friend, he shares.
His heart cannot mention my name.
While my heart can only scream his.
I've been seen caressing his skin with my gaze.
Memorizing his shape.
I've dreamt of how his lips round his words.
As I replace friendship with love.
My heart hangs heavy when I hear his voice.
My pulse races with his scent.
As he walks past, her on his arm.
Unlike any of the others, he kills me and keeps me alive.

A very great poem, people can clearly see the emotions in it and can relate to it, nice work!

This is a great poem. I especially like the line about the pauses - very clever. The last line is a bit confusing, and I think you could work to make a few of the transitions flow smoother, but overall I love it. Great work!

I agree as well. He's missing out on something good and he will regret it...cause I feel that way as well sometimes with my boy friend...... I know your pain to a degree but you'll find someone as well someone who will make you feel the same as yo felt for this boy.
