PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I always seem to return to you~

a lover I could never leave.



You hold me close without touching~

a force too strong to resist

but impossible to track.



Like the breath of spring’s breeze

or the warmth of summer’s kiss,

it’s not too long before you appear.



You pick me up when I’m weak,

but bring me down when

I thought I was strong enough

to walk away from you.



You won’t let me go

no matter how much

I kick and scream for release.



You know the power you have over me,

and you take advantage of it.



You use and abuse this heart

that just desires to be loved.



Please set me free.

Loosen these chains.

Heed my screams.  



I don’t want to be yours anymore.

I don’t want to be a prisoner to gravity.



I don’t want to fall on my knees,

and not be able to get up.



I don’t want to be pulled

into lust’s embrace,

and become ensnared.



I don’t want to be addicted

to the pain of un-fulfillment

when I could have so much more.
