Succumb To Your Thoughts Poem by Nicole Gehrman

Waiting on the day to come around the corner
when i will no the difference between what is true
and when im just being ued.
I'm blind to everything around me
not realizing what i had till it was gone.
Materializing before my eyes
only to disappear as i try to grasp it.

Wanting the day to come
when it will be firm in my grasp
once again.
Like a time so long ago
My past won't let me live it down.
It will always come back to haunt me.
It will always be there in my subconscious,
waiting to strike at the right moment.
Every time i get close enough to love again,
it snaps me back to reality and reels me backward.
While i fold in on myself
knowing nothing will ever be the same ever again.

Wishing the day to come when it will finally let me go
to face my dreadful future with head held high.
Ready to fight any battle that dares to pass in front of me
when i have my path clearly carved out.
Because if it come down to it
and i only have one breath to spare.
I would use it to tell you
that I've always loved you.
