Possibly Saving You Poem by Maya Hanson

I'll give in to save you,
I'll give in today
but maybe next minute
I'll change my mind

I want you and want nothing,
I want everything all at once
but dust is already
settling in front of me
and I'm not enough of a storm to stir it up

I hope with the few days we have
we can conjure up a storm
and leave everything barren and ready to be created

Give it all, take none
Don't regret anything
Give in, take control
nothing else to say

I'll spend everything to know you,
I'll spend it today
but you slip into thin air
whenever you get the chance

I thought I was saving you
but maybe you're saving me,
saving me with haze and clarity
Maybe the dust is concrete
and I'm not supposed to keep you
and I'm not supposed to fall for you
but if not
what are you doing here?
