I thought I knew,
I thought I had a plan in my life,
and then you showed up!
I thought I was going to die.
I already had a plan!
Ialready had a life!
then, tell me …what happened?
Does this happen all the time?
I don't want to know anymore,
It hurts too much to be awake.
but, I don't want to be in a dream world,
I want to simply go my way.
So, I decided for this:
I have made up my mind again.
I will let you go,
and even though my heart is in pain,
to live my life once more,
will definitely be a gain!

You are a very good poetress, a lot better than me. I only write stupid stuff. Maybe when I grow up I can be as good.
Now that is a mature and meaningful poem. So happy to find a poet with a head on her shoulders. Read mine -I Cannot Return - Adeline
This poem has not been translated into any other language yet.
I would like to translate this poem
I Like the vexed complexity of the poem specificaly reading through the lines, even though painful, i love its deepest massage, word!
