Let Me Go

Knowing something should be but never will be.

                                         

                                               by Vidya Bacchus and Jonathan Edward Furches                     

Tell me to go otherwise I'll never leave,

Wrapped in your arms I want to believe,

That I belong here this is my home,

And she's the one that can't leave you alone.

Tell me we're wrong even though we feel right,

Tell me you love her and I'll go without a fight,

Don't sear me with kisses that ask me to stay,

And damn me with promises that always go astray.

Let me be let me go,

Show me balance within the depth of cold,

Allow my fears to find me near,

Even I understand your greatest fear.

I know your right within the fight,

Your golden gloves I see,

Hopes, leaps, bounds and promises,

They are all my eyes can see.

I need to leave but I have to stay,

Destiny's tender I gladly pay,

If today is ours then lets not ponder,

If your tomorrow is promised  to another.

A collaboration with my friend and oh so talented poet Jon.

My new favorite of yours... Oh my goodness what a collaboration girl...

"Don't sear me with kisses that ask me to stay,

And damn me with promises that always go astray."

Love, lust, relationships are so dang confusing and complicated by thoughts, doubts, and expectations... Perceptions of the psyche muddied by emotions of the heart:)

Deeply moving... beautifully written

[Vidya Bacchus]

If your tomorrow is promised to another."
