Thoughts at Year's End

Folder: 
Missing Him

I’m afraid to end it here

Because I feel everything

Hasn’t said that needs to be

So I keep you confined, at

Arm’s length, in case the

Epiphany I’m seeking appears.



But maybe closure never

Completely comes,

Maybe it comes only in whiffs:

Lasting for a while

And evaporating into the air again.



I don’t understand how you can

Turn your emotions on and off

Like a finely-tuned faucet

Because it seems somehow mine

Has been leaking unstop.



And when you said you loved me

I wish I had believed you.

Because now I’ve realized,

If no one loves me ever again,

It would be fine, because

You loved enough for a lifetime.
