Please!
Let me lay here, wrapping shaking arms around myself, because no one else will hold me.
Let me sleep forever, what if I open my eyes and find I wasn't dreaming?
Haven't you caused enough harm?
Bad enough to know, I will die
Worse still, to do what you have done.
Lost the will to live and the strength to die.
Yet...
Gaining the love you have given me
Held me closely on nights I could not go on, you the only one who would
Nights I did not wish to sleep, because I did not want to dream
Worse still what you have known and seen
Bad enough to know, I can never return
How will I hate you, if I love you so?
Fin.
Wierd angle on Demeter I suppose... review if you think I deserve one. Oh and if anyone has read 'Letting Go' one of my other poems I guess they go quite well together...
