stay

by ALICIA - Cancer

the emptiness consumes me as only being left can
i have to let go of what fueled me in the end,
im always letting go of what i do not want to live without
it makes me want to shout
i do not understand what used to be so simple to figure out
now intead of knowing i live in doubt
how can you feel so much in such a short amount of time
your hands grasp for security and they are left to drift and mime
you have little if anything at all
yet even with nothing something seems to fall
your life was so simple when you were not in control
now that you are your powerless to your heart and soul
you feel what you can never find the words to say
with no attachment noting seems to stay
life is a bitch but come as it may
i just wish i had the courage to keep him from going away

Reason for writing:

    it's about someone i trully bonded with who i wanted to stay with me and he did to but the challenge of where he would stay and my family kept me from going with him and with him staying it is truly great when you meet someone you become that close to but the heart ache of knowing he has to leave.  i guess i mean i knew he was leaving before we got involved and i should have thought about how i was going to feel now but thats how love is and stuff so i think im glad for the memories
