Gentle Introspection
You don’t want to be mine..
To always keep and hold.
Now what can I do
But spend some time being alone.
To avoid rejection
One can sit and do nothing..
Nothing asked so nothing denied
How long can someone wait..
So patiently.
Where is the knowing if all
Our desires can be met in a lifetime
Or is it just better
To let them all go?
Because trying too hard..
Has set me alight
And controlling doesn’t work anymore.
My heart in this darkness
Holds but one flame of truth.
A truth that flickers through this all.
There was never such a thing
As a perfection outside of me.
I only needed to realise….
