I Need You Not

You want to be alone. You need me not.
 Your hand can find my hand and move away.
 When you are close, I blush, I feel so hot,
 But you’ll for sure get rid of me someday…

 You need to set your world where you’re a king,
 You need your space where all the stars are yours,
 Let all the winds the storm of freedom bring,
 Let all the keys unlock the heaven’s doors.

 I know you well. I feel the same. I do,
 But you’re so deep in your amazing space,
 That I give up, I’m leaving you with you,
 I hope, it was the last, the fastest race.

 I’ll spread my wings to fly above this all,
 My empty heart’s the only thing I’ve got.
 You seem so far, you seem so far and small…
 I want to be alone. I need you not.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
