Won't let go yet

"Poetry is what gets lost in translation." -Robert Frost

I fear my favorite place,

And now I can’t see my face,

Searching for something I’ll never find,

I keep my dreams in the back of my mind,

 

I don’t know where to go,

Waiting for someone to show,

No one ever hears me though,

I’m stuck in the past,

Everyone seems to pass by too fast,

 

I can’t leave,

It’s hard to perceive but,

If you’re still there I won’t forget,

I won’t let go yet,

 

Why is it so easy for you,

To start anew?

I guess you had no choice,

and now I’ve lost my voice,

 

I don’t know where I stand,

Waiting for someone to land,

Regretting what was never planned,

I’m stuck in the middle,

Everyone seems to know the riddle,

 

I can’t leave,

It’s hard to perceive but,

If you’re still there I won’t forget,

I won’t let go yet.
