Walk away...
Do I want you?
Ohhhh yes....
but not at the expense
of giving up my inner self,
Not at the expense of losing
and being unable to regain
the core that makes me
who I am.
I will not give my beliefs,
my foundations built and
made strong by my life's
experience
I will not subjugate the
spirit that lives within me
to appease your
inner demon,
obvious to all and
denied existance
by you in your blindness.
I am not willing to give up
my hopes, my dreams for
promises tainted with maybe,
for future already murky and
set with dim horizons.
Yes, I will be able to resist
the touch that shakes me,
makes me weak and wanton,
I can walk away from dying
hope and continue my life
in the light of God's goodness...
shake the dust of our life
together from the experiences
that clothe my life...
and walk away...
Yes...I can.
