Losing You
I feel like I am losing you
Sorry to be blunt
This poem; not a cry for help or
Attention grabbing stunt
I know you are no possession
And even if you were
I have no claim, no stake in you
I know that you'll concur
And yet I feel quite vacant
Like a part of you has left
Not anxious, just uncertain
This feeling in my chest
I don't know how to fix this
Not wanting to impose
I have to be myself I guess
Not in someone else's clothes
So there. I said it.
I'm hoping you don't mind
It's just this insecurity
That's less than cruel; unkind.
Whenever I get close to you
Your presence makes me soar
It's just the way the story goes
Repeats itself. Once more.
