Letting Go.A Poem by larryI can't sleep I don't want to eat. I need to pretend that everything is fine. I don't want to wake up I want to stay everlastingly trapped in the world of dreams and fantasies. Instead I have to watch them together. The anger and jealousy gnawing at my insides. Sometimes I look into the eyes I wish so much were mine, And see a beautiful light in the dark world I live in. I don't care if it's against the rules, I want to be with the one I can't have So I stray away, falling further, further with Every. Stolen. Kiss. All of the longing gazes. All of the hushed conversations. All of the flirtatious smiles. I long for them, bringing pain with every thought. I can't sleep. I don't want to eat. I need to pretend that everything's fine. I don't want to wake up. But I have to sleep. I have to eat. I have to uncover what I want and express it. I have to wake up. Let go. Sometimes, I worry that if I let go, It will be to early. Sometimes, I worry that if I let go, You will never be mine. © 2016 larry |
