“Holding on is believing that there's only a past; letting go is knowing that there's another future.” Author unknown. Make no bones about it. I shall never want you, Don't waste your love on someone worthless like me. All is lost like a fat candle lit in bright sunlight, Wasted as a dewdrop falling in the sea; It's as pointless as a cold snowflake Settling on freezing Mount Everest. I'm deaf and dumb to your spirit, Perhaps I'm stone blind or have a rock instead of a heart. Don't blame yourself; my soul is ravished by tempests past That rage was like a tornado inside me. I try to dredge the ancient hates. That left me stubborn and blind, Swept by the hurricanes of old loves, An anger whirling like a rushing wind, I weave a shade dark and benighted To smother all that's bad. Alas, the end result is that I cannot love. I'm just indifferent. Do I make myself clear? Placed 1
