She's somewhat like a dream, or a project
I can't tell why, but I want her, to better her
How is me of all people falling into emotions
I'm a creature, one of logic, and reason.
So none of this is clear, what's the point?
I keep asking myself, but no answer comes
Vague feelings, ones new to me.
It's not love, I know this. My heart is elsewhere.
Perhaps it's a feeling of sorrow?
She's so innocent, I want to carry her away
To move her somewhere she belongs
I've never felt such kindness, from anyone.
She opens doors not known to me
Gentle yet firm,  here but elusive, forbidden
Above all else.
Yes, I think I want her, as my toy.
She need not worry, I'm very delicate
I know how fragile playing with her
Playing with people, can be
I want to move her forward in life
A better slope, a better view
One where she can see all of her past
and know just how far she's gone
She'll remove the black smears, and tears
From her sad eyes.
This was the first poem I wrote about a girl who I've fell in love with. I've had it lying about and never really submitted it, hell or anything for that matter.

In this poem I don't realize it's love that is beginning to manifest itself, I thought at the time it was sorrow.

However as I pay attention to everything around me I've learned the error, and understand now that this is someone that is starting to open feelings that I didn't know existed. I have now had my first glimpse of true love, I really do wish to save her.

You strike a good balance of revealing yourself while keeping the reader focused on the subject too. Nicely done.
