I Need To Stop Poem by Paul Storm

I Need To Stop

Rating: 4.8


i need to stop
writing poetry

i mean forever

because it keeps
bringing me
back to you

to those days

for all my words
contain you

cant see
tomorrow
nor do i care

yesterdays are clear
permitting comfort
among the scars

reminding me
of what was then
of you

i need to stop

I really don't think you get to stop. Gift, curse, or both, you write because you must. You have the gift. D

I know the feeling...I can't agree more. Writing perpetuates the ache. Illuminates it even more. In my case. At least it gives us good material.
