Letting Go Poem by Melissa Robinson

Letting Go



Off the tip of your tongue and from your mouth
your rancid accusations degrade me.
I try and push them away and block them out
from all that I'm contemplating.

But it's so hard to do with how much I care
for you and all of our memories..
Your lack of virtue and your suppressed emotions
are no excuse for u to hurt me.

This contention among us lacerates me;
my hearts made of glass and it's shattering.
I strive farthest from you but still long for your touch-
the scent of your skin still remains comforting.

I've sullenly noticed I am addicted to you,
your like a drug and I'm finally quitting.
This time it's for good, you make me sick;
stay away from me, don't talk to me, don't touch me..

Paying forward: Man learns by hardship slowly And pays with sweat for light He never would have seen the stars Had he not seen the night

This contention among us lacerates me; my hearts made of glass and it's shattering. I strive farthest from you but still long for your touch- the scent of your skin still remains comforting. I was especially impressed with this stanza. A flare for good writing!
