Matthan Atherton Poet Rhyme

I Will Not Stop

It hurts to let go
So I still hold you close
I say I've moved on
But I love the memories most

When we were close
I could honestly say I lived
I started to feel whole again
Anything you wanted, I'd give

Now you want me to be strong
I feel like giving up
But you are all I want
And I am not that tough

I sit alone and wonder why
I would give you my all
All I wanted was you
And now I am left to fall

I lay awake at night
I ignore the door and the phone
Because without you
I just want to be alone

I don't know why I can't leave
I never go out anymore
I only do the necessities
Work, school, and the store

I am but an empty shell that walks
I move around lifeless and glum
I can act strong
Only because I am numb

I can go on and write for hours
And I think that is what I will do
Because it's the only thing I have left
The only thing I have left of you
