My Daily Apparition
In the flesh, you're the girl
I once knew: a phantom before my eyes,
independently beautiful.
No matter how hard I try
I can't catch your interest-
I blew it, I'm through.
You're the apparition
I cannot shake from my mind.
Why do I still care?
My days of loving you are over-
I blew it, I'm through
and now completely denied.
I long for any contact: a hello, smile, or even a glare.
Give me a sign.
Another piece of me dies
each time you act as if I don't exist:
nothing but a blank stare.

First off, I enjoyed your poem!
At the moment, I am to someone the way that girl is to you. The simple thing is that he is a nice guy, but that I'm not interested in him, am bored by the things he says and don't wish to try to tell him why I don't want to talk to him.... How am I, is she-this girl, supposed to communicate this without risking hurting you more?
thanks
and I again, I thank for the poem and sharing your feelings
