One day

A Poem by SimpleMind

I will run to her with the world on my side and arms open wide

Don’t be scared

Promise, I will take care of myself

I am strong, and I will be stronger

So strong that I can take care of you

So please, take me

Don’t leave me behind

But if you really have to

Please leave a track

Not for you to come back

But for me to follow

And if I caught up with you

Please don’t neglect me

I’m not mad at you

For leaving me alone

See? I am happy

I am happy because

I know one day

I will see you

And I pray to God

That on that day

I will see you happy

With your new family

Even if you will not love me

Author's Note

I just made this poem few minutes ago and I feel like sharing how I feel so I published this here.

So there, I'm an open book (hoping that she will be able to read me one day), and I'm sharing this so that to those who are like me...you'll realize that being doomed is an option and not fate.

Sorry for the late review, insomnia strikes again!
As always, beautiful and well written, a lot of emotion in this one and some intangible quality that kept me hooked until the very last line.
As always keep it up and give us even more great work :)

This is a very good poem you have here! The maturity in this is amazing! Putting the other person ahead of yourself and wanting to be strong for them if they need. A very caring and open poem! Bravo

this is tragically unhappy ...but there is so much hope entwined between the words in every line. it reads like a sad romantic comedy, like i am watching a saturday afternoon matinee and looking for that happy ending, because i know it is coming. how could anyone betray such optimism? this is gorgeous! superb write....

Your heart is so beautiful and precious. How your deep longing to see your mother just took my breath away. Truly pure and loving.. forgiving.. embracing. Sitting here in silence.. all my wishes and prayers for you now in this moment. May it be.. please may it be. xx
