I'M SO IN LOVE WITH YOU

I’m So In Love With You


I don’t want to be second fiddle
I’m not okay being number two

But I can’t seem to walk away
Because I’m so in love with you

You call me when you’re bored
When you have nothing else to do

And I stupidly answer the phone
Because I’m so in love with you

You tell me about your breakups
How you and her are through

And I hang on every word
Because I’m so in love with you

You tell me that you love me
But your words do not ring true

But I believe them anyway
Because I’m so in love with you

I wish we’d never met
That you were someone I never knew

But I just can’t seem to walk away
Because I’m forever in love with you

Eryn brings us a heart-wrenching tale of love where she finds herself stuck as the "second fiddle." It's a raw, emotional journey through the pain of loving someone who doesn't love you back with the same fervor.

She's tired of being the backup plan yet can't seem to break free because her love is too deep.
Eryn only hears from this person when they're bored or have nothing better to do, highlighting a one-sided relationship where she's always ready to answer, despite knowing better.
She hangs on every word of the other's breakups, hoping against hope that this time it'll be different.
There's a stark realization that the 'I love You's' might not be genuine, but she chooses hope over reality.
Wishing she had never met this person, Eryn acknowledges her inability to walk away, bound by love that won't let go.

This poem resonates with anyone who's ever loved more than they were loved in return. It's a poignant reminder of how love can blind us, keep us waiting, and sometimes, leave us wishing for an alternate reality where we never fell at all.

Out of all of my poems Luis, I truly feel like this is one that MANY readers can relate to. At least, some time during their life. Whether they were still in high school or later on in life. It is such a horrible feeling to know that you will never be the right fit for the person that you think fits your own puzzle perfectly.

THE PATH TO MY HEART

The Path To My Heart I gave you a map. It led straight to my heart. But you took the paper, And ripped it apart. Did I walk away? No, I lived in the lie. I gave you more chances. I thought you would try. But I guess that my map, Just leads to heartbreak. A pain so damn deep, A chasm of ache. So I’ve made a new map. One just for me. No twists to avoid. It will make me happy. I’ll follow this path. And I’ll take every turn. Till the pain is all gone. And I don’t feel the burn. And I'll reclaim my power. I'll reclaim my light. And I'll finally remember, That I'm worth the fight. Original Poetry Written By Eryn Dunbar Copyright (c) 7.9.2025

FOOL'S GOLD

  FOOL'S GOLD Never again You won’t see my face The way you treat others Is such a disgrace Your essence is toxic Your lips drip with lies You’re selfish and hateful Beneath your disguise You’re like a fungus A spore or black mold You think you’re a gem But you’re just fool’s gold You’re made up of layers But even snakes shed their skin You’re not only noxious You’re the eighth deadly sin It took at most months And not several years To see how you prey Upon everyone’s fears You find out their secrets Then laugh as you share Breaking their hearts They just laid out bare But here’s a little something  I guess you didn’t know Those others you talk to See how you dim their glow They like themselves more Than they’ll ever like you They’ll have long walked away Before you’ll have your first clue So go wear your charm And spin your tall tales The ship that I’m on Has long set its sails Now I’ve risen up And I’ve slammed the door I won't allow you to imprint On my life  ANYMORE O...

THE TRUTH OF LOVE

-

  The Truth Of Love Love means giving someone freedom While nurturing your bond And although it is magical It’s not made with a wand It isn’t built on fairy dust Or sealed with just a kiss It takes deep roots and daily care To grow a love like this It’s not control or ownership It’s not a silent war Real love will never cage your wings It will only help you soar It holds you close, yet lets you breathe It lifts, but doesn’t bind It sees your flaws and loves you still With honesty that’s kind It won’t be perfect every day And sometimes it feels tough But even through the hard and raw You’ll know that it’s enough So if you find a heart like this That helps you rise above Then hold it close, and honor it You’ve found the truth of love Original Poetry Written By Eryn Dunbar Copyright (c) 8.21.2025
