Its not that I don't love
the many ways you say your thanks.
But, untold, too many times
your thank-you comments sank.
Having never quite reached me,
yet I mustered my way on through.
Still finding loving things and words
to capture and bring straight to you.
In hopes that you will one day face,
the stark reality of my love design.
I'm hoping that you'll take the time
to one day reciprocate my love in kind.

hmmm...unrequited love...thats one of those things that a person never really recovers from or forgets...a forever "what if" and dashed hopes
thanks for the entry! -
Nicely written, a very poetic way of saying pay it forward. Giving to others can be addicting and enjoyable. Would be nice if others could learn that and start new trends.
