POETRY
LOVE
Paulo G. Araujo

Yes, I love her
I've loved her for a long time
But you're already in love...
With another
...
I can't stop feeling what I feel...
Believe me, I've tried
...
What should I do?
What!?
What...
...
Perhaps one day everything will be different?
I can't say
...
I've tried to shatter myself into a billion pieces,
So I wouldn't find her in every verse I write
...
But it's no use... it's no use!...
It's no use...
No longer
...
Every sleepless night I endured
Because my heart tortured me...
Every tear...
I love you, and I miss you...
But it's all in vain
...
One person can't love for two
...
Every word... every letter I write...
Cuts me in different ways...
But honestly, I think it's good...
So my damn heart
Can finally see what made me suffer
...
And maybe
...
I can forget... and move on…
