Test of Trust

I’m going to do something I’ve never done before

Walk away from my Heart

Put aside my pride

Try to forget my feelings

Let my desire for you go Hungry

Close my eyes and imagine anything else

Hold back the urge

To fight for your Heart

This is Hard

I am my own worst enemy

I want to hear your voice

I miss your presence

I want to tell you what you’re not asking

Give you what you haven’t requested

I know what you want

I know what you need

Space

And so I bite my tongue

Keep to myself

From a distance

Going back to the life I had before you

This is killing my Soul

Again it’s hard

History will not repeat itself

This time around

I’ll wait

From afar

Because I Care

You’ll have my best at this

Just know this is taking all the strength I have

Unseen is the struggle from with in

To walk away from the Heart

From everything I desire

From what I find to be without fla on the outside

And unknown on the inside

This is

All this

Is for you

Giving the one who has your Heart space is one of the hardest things to do. This task is no simple one and it's so hard not to give in to your Hearts cry to be near her but doing so only risks pushing her away. So in the end a small bitter sting of loneliness must be felt.

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
