What I Need To Do Poem by Cielo Dela Cruz

I have given you my trust
With all my heart and all
I entrusted you my love
Without any doubt, and gave it all

All honesty was given
Though it sometimes hurts you more
All effort was done to save it all
But is it still, worth fighting for?

Willingness and hope
For us to settle, is there within me
But will it work, if it’s only me doing the compromising
Time and affection is still felt by you
But will it be enough to endure us in the future

You say I love you and I miss you
I had heard it so many times
But is there the sincerity in it all
For action speaks louder than words

You dream of a good future
When the future does not include me
You wanted to forget the past
When the past includes me
You wanted to feel my love and affection
When the warmth of your love,
You seek to give to someone new
Is it still right to hold on to you?

Please let the hurt and pain go away
For my mind can’t think of any way
To reach you and make you understand
That loving you is breaking my heart in all ways.
