The Pauper

You smile, you laugh,
but inside I cry.
You frown, and you doubt,
then I die.

I would be better than him,
and I wish you knew,
the the feelings inside me
are honest and true.

But then again,
how could you love me?
I'm a pauper...

In line for succession,
you are the noble.
In line for depression,
I am the slave.

Whenever you look at me,
It's like I'm on fire.
I love when you look at me,
and fill me with desire.

Those beautiful eyes,
are too much to bear.
I look your way,
but the emotion's not there.

Just that same sweet green,
to look down on your kingdom,
when you are the queen,
And I am your pauper...

    Longing!

    You describe longing with your words...
    Hoping and dreaming of a smile or glance
    and feeling like you hold your hat for alms...
    You nailed the feeling with this poem. Jane

    This is beautiful, and haunting, and, and, and.. a lot of postive words that I can't think of right now. x x; Eheheh'... yeah.

    I'm not sure if this is JUST about an RP you're in, or if perhaps there is a double meaning here. Ah, well.. I'll find out if I'm meant to know.
