May You Never Know Poem by Lynnie Kim

Forget it, let it go.
Compel youself,
don’t let anyone know.
Maybe this way,
it could be forever.
But …
I don’t know,
and I can’t see.
Just need you near me,
my heart can’t set you free.

I cannot bear that
you have anyone else but me.
I know that I know
we could never be but
I just can’t accept this reality
One day,
you’ll be far from me.
And all I’ll be left with
is your memory.

I hope this memory
fades with time.
‘coz up till now
I really can’t cope
with the hope
that maybe
you could be mine.

Friends I hope, futile as it be.
I can’t hurt the ones
nearest me.
So I have to, I really do,
kill my heart and set you free

May you never know and always be
happy and free … away from me.
