What Has To Be Poem by La'Chelle Yount

My mind again plays tricks on me
My heart hates me at this point
With every thought of you I tremble
For once I find myself fascinated
Never ever being bored of you manner
Feeling as though I cheated the system
Only knowing you for such a short time
I just might begin again... again
My skin longs for your magical touch
My mouth longs to embrace your lips
Your mysterious ways leave me wanting more
Wishing somehow our worlds met in different times
Knowing the you that I know now, wanting to be yours
Time seems to be cruel in this hour
As I watch my cigarette burn, I feel lost
Where to go after such an amazing time
I try and lie to myself saying it is for the best
My selfishness seems to take hold of me
Never wanting to be without you, I cry
Knowing what desires you have
Me not able to fulfill any of them, my heart stops feeling
Inside I grow awkward and want to run
Fighting every urge to throw my morals
I again think of you and the happiness you deserve
Understanding what needs to take place
I burn my feelings along with the letter I wrote
Saving face and possibly what is left of me
I smile and continue through my day trying not to remember
Saying I love you is not enough, the one true thing that hides
By letting you go, I hope you hear and feel my hidden words.
