About the Poem

This poem is about teenage love. It is about how teenagers "fall in love" with someone, but instead of admitting their feelings and talking to that someone, they sit back and watch them from afar. About how no matter what you're doing, they always find a way to pop into your mind. About how you are afraid to express your feelings because you fear rejection. I know about this topic all to well!

I wrote this poem about a girl that I liked, and instead of just talking to her, I just freakin sat there. Now it is too late, because she just passed away and will never know my true feelings for her. I wish every day that we could be together.

Unknown, Untouched, Unseen

by Jacob Sullivan

Your sparkling blue eyes, almost like the sky above,
the sky lacking the affection
shown by these amazing features.
Your voice is sensational, ringing constantly I my ears,
lingering only to remind me of your kind and gentle ways.
Your smile is warm, showing love to all things seen.
Your presence is what I long for every minute of the day.
But to my disappointment,
I can only dream of the time that we could be together.
I'd love to run my fingers through your silky blond hair
that flows ever so gently free,
delicately framing your fragile face that beams with joy.

Your humor delights me, it will obtain my attention always.
You act with concern for all creatures
and long to portray a positive message to all people.
I see your face only in school,
but long to reach out and touch you tender heart.
My mind secures a picture of you so that we will never be apart.
Through all the storms and seasons, you are the only one.
Constant, always caring, bright, shinning as the sun.

I really do understand how you feel. I read the not above the poem, and I can just imagine how I'd feel if I lost the one person I loved. Great poem it is awesome work, keep it up and believe me, true love can always tell. Your love will always know how you feel, whether she is with you or not.

I loved this poem it was great! i've had the same thing happen to me with a guy. Finally i got the courage to tell him and found out he likes me too! it was great! you should just talk to the girl andf see if she likes you, you have nothing to lose just something to gain. she might just be scared you don't like her. Great job on the poem!

i loved this poem, because I'm in the same situation, this girl that i truly like is almost graduting and leaving me forever.

I felt the same way. I know how it is to look and never can touch. You just have to let it go and put it in the past

Adina

I know what you mean when you say that you didn't told that girl your feelings. I let that happen to me 3 times. Can you believe it? I can't. But now I built up my courage and I'm not leting go.

Jacob, I'm really sorry for your loss. I really liked this poem, it reminds me of me right now, See. I like this boy, and he's about 3 or maybe 4 years older than me, he use to be my sisters friend, They stopped being friends, and he moved away, So, now I don't have anyway to tell him my feelings for him, And I'm afraid that I will never see him again!
