NO NeedA Poem by Shay Renee
No Need
How can I tell you I love you, when I’ve already lost you?
How can I prove I need you, when you’re loving someone new?
Why would I be so stingy when there is nothing to cling to?
Why should I tell you I don’t when tears are all my eyes produce?
If I had only begged for you to stay would my heart still throb in my chest?
Protruding guilt, could you have work with me if my true feelings I had not suppressed?
Every beat of my heart echoes sore, bruised love songs
If I only I had held on tighter would you still had moved on?
With every breath I take I inhale the regret of saying goodbye
And I exhale soft whispers of how could I’s
Conjoined by the seed of love, like twins “WE” was my name
So how could I give our shared heart to you and think I could maintain
Beyond hurt is what I am, can I really play numb
When my love for you evades control, how can I just play dumb?
You were my life, my love, my reason to smile, maybe that is why I forgotten what laughter feels like
And I’ve come to know, all to well, lonely sleepless nights
Many people fear being alone, but that is my only dream
Because without you there is no such thing as being keen
Of another, no one could ever take you place, my absent lover
“I only got eyes for you” cause for me there is no other
But… Since you have moved on, I have no choice but to let go
My soul still burning with questions that my mind will never know
So why would I tell you I love you, when I’ve already lost you?
And there is no need to prove I need you, cause you’re loving someone new!
