Tell me how to forget.
Tell me how to let go.
To make this go away.
Ease this burden.
Please tell me how to release this breath,
I have been holding deep within
For so long.
Frozen in time,
Deprived of air.
Tell me how much I need
To drown myself
In hopes
In dreams
In sorrows…
Endless words…
Before I can finally be free
Of this puzzling memory.
Just once.
Just this once…
Please…
Step out of my thoughts,
Fill this voided space
In the caverns of my heart —
I like the sense of longing for a guiding hand that you have captured in your poem, which you have written beautifully, avoiding any hint of desperation.
A guiding hand is what I desperately seek..this is a true longing from the depths of my heart. Again, thank you for your wonderful reply 🙂
Outstanding, very enjoyable read, profound.
Thank you so much, Ann. Your comments are always so nice to read 🙂
As are yours, have a great weekend. Ann
