Waiting
i am waiting for the lifting of limitation
for the sight of inspiration
the candlelight flickers across the yellowed page
the page is blank yet filled with age
so i sit here in this dusty old chair
trying to show you i'll always be there
i know where i belong
its been with you all along
so i sit here waiting
for ways to show you how i'm feeling
so i find ways to be near you
even if its hard to get through to you
this is hard for me
hard to make you see
that i have these feelings for you
and somewhere inside you love me too
so i picture your smile
it makes all the waiting worthwhile
so the words come to me
i have an ineradicable line--the foundation of my poetry
you are the stars in the night
you shine so bright
i think i just might be fine
i may find i am on your mind as you're on mine

The magic of Poetry
That was an exquisite piece. Just one thing, well, technically two--watch your grammer. You should capitalize new lines and "I". Also, this one line, "that i have this feelings for you" should have "these" instead of "this." I do this not to embarress you, and I hope I do not in the process, but to warn you and better your poetry.
Let life's embrace take away the horrors of the world for a few moments. Remember what is so good that it makes life worth living, and banish away the thoughts that say otherwise--those are the thoughts that corrupt.

i don't like to capitalize the i or new lines... but i did make it these instead
