Letting Go

By Emmerson

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I remember a time when all was beautiful, When I laughed and smiled deep within my heart. When I dreamt with a passion that even I could not believe, When the last thing on my mind, was that we would ever part. Today I remember all those times, that were just yours and mine, My heart so intune with yours, I trusted it's every beat. In reflection and in healing, I sit back and look at who you are, Not really who I thought you were, you didn't fall from a shooting star. The mind is such an amazing thing, it sees all thats not really there, Creative in it's mastery, forming pictures from within words. Snapshots of emotions both to sense and to feel, No wonder I fell so deeply, it was my mind that made it real. Never once did I feel the warmth of your sweetest kiss, Only ever dreaming about how I thought it would be sheer bliss. The things that I thought I heard, were not really there at all, Just whispers from my imagination, that caused me to take such a fall. My emotions have been numbed, by an overload of sensations, None of them really your fault, they were all my own creation. Taking back all the pieces of me, to you that I showed, My mind telling me, its time, the pain must be over now. Today I must let you go.sighs Written January 31st, 2002 © on Jan 31 2002 01:34 PM PST   18 • 0 • 8
