Stuck In My Heart Poem by ian muhando

This moment alone,
The thought still new and fresh,
Fulfilling, I must say,
To get frozen in just this moment’s hush,

The laughter I hold back,
All the things still stuck in my heart,
That were yours to take,
The unborn marvelous things I have,

I am tempted to think I’m a jerk,
To have let go when no one else would,
This ‘dating’ thing I suck,
But I still think I had much more to bid,


The thought that today has come,
Am neither freaked nor feel lost,
Staring into this emptiness I am,
That I have lived for this long,

Am a little surprised,
That I don’t miss your absence,
Infatuated and carried.
Was all this just by chance?

The good we shared,
Perfect thing it was,
So clear not marred,
Is what my heart still sees.
