Everyone But You- Poem by Rebecca Wood
Everyone But You
If you have ever felt like you lost your chance to tell someone how you felt about them, then you can relate to this poem. I have felt these feelings portrayed in this poem. They're not the greatest, but not the worst. I hope not many of you out there have felt these feelings, but I hope you enjoy either way.
People saw my blonde hair and eyes, green then blue
I wish I was invisible to everyone, everyone but you
They might have told you, but you didn't think it was true
Everyone knew who I loved, everyone but you
It hurt at sixteen, I had to move from all I knew
I could leave everyone behind, everyone but you
I had to forget my past, even my love for you
It was easy to forget everyone, everyone but you
I tried to be strong, stronger than you
I was tougher than everyone I knew, everyone but you
No one before nor after you
I've never loved anyone, anyone but you
Many have tried to love me, but no one stood up to you
I would never say "I love you" to anyone, anyone but you
When I heard you were with her, and your love fell through
I turned to everyone, everyone but you
