Sweet Memories - a Mara Prose Poem

Wanting something new but stuck with the old

Desiring that warm, fuzzy feeling but stuck in the cold

Do I stay or do I leave?
What about all the memories?

Wish I could go back to better times
When I was yours and you were mine

The emptiness is stifling, the entire situation has become trifling

I yearn for love's burn

I crave to be saved

I worry that I've stopped crying
I worry that I've stopped trying

My indifference is an interference

He's elusive while I'm awake
How much more can I take?

The look in my eyes says it all
I'll just let the pieces fall
