Expression…never found
For Winnie-the-Pooh
People think that I can't love you,
Because you are out of grasp.
People laugh when I speak of you,
Because they don't know how I feel.
Deep inside their sneers wound me,
Yet they know not what they do.
Yet that pain is nothing in comparison
To the pain that is caused by you.
But oblivious you are to my existence,
And nothing for you is changed.
If only I could let you know,
But if I could, I would.
I can't tell you because things lie between us,
Many obstacles block my path.
If things were just that little bit different,
Then maybe I would sleep.
I cannot remove your picture,
My mind is swamped with emotions.
And I cannot express myself,
For you will never be there.
