Please Realize

If I lose you today,

I have nothing to fear tomorrow

If I push you away

I need not wither with sorrow.

 

Do you understand now?

 

If I lock up my heart and put out the light,

If I say with my own lips I never loved you,

If I give you up without a fight,

Then I need not curse the inevitable adieu.

 

Do you comprehend me?

 

Had I from the conception,

Forbid myself to fall in love and dare to hope,

Realised my folly upon reflection,

I should have set myself, beyond your gentle scope.

Thank you so very much! So glad you liked it! Narrator.

If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
