That Time Poem by Joanna Pavlides

That day
When you brushed away
My sorrows

That day I knew
I should not push
Your love away
I should stop fighting
you

That night
When you whispered
You wanted my love

That night I knew
I should stop fighting
you
I should let you in
And the walls should go

That time
When you pushed me away
I was confused

That time I knew
How scared I was for me
To be losing you
I was weak and bare
And in despair


and it stayed that way
