Break-free


It’s been a long time

Since the last poem was sent

Cause I fear

That the power of words would run out of magic

And play to be just a normal phrase

This leads me to want

Not to see you everyday

Not to let you feel my presence for a while

Cause just like these words

I am afraid to lose worth

Afraid to lose my effect

I am afraid to be normalized

But then I’ve realized

The more I think about stepping a bit 

The more I want to be close

Closer

And a little more

Cause the longer I set the distance

The more I long for you

For

How lovely does it do

To wake up everyday

And imagine your eyes

The way it is when I open mine

How hypnotizing it really is

Trying to affect me with it’s lost of control

How much cravings does it cost

Which I can’t even bare

Whenever I feel like eating the candy

Or even the bubblegum

The desire to consume this unlimited offer

As long as it’s with you

How heart-melting it is

To feel your joy

With the curve in your lips

With the sound of your laughter

Everytime you feel my effect on you

Everytime you feel tickled

And

How melancholic would it be

Being unable to feel 

The warmth of your body

As it sets close to mine

As you embrace me

With a fire on your heart

I realize

That sometimes

Having the fear of not keeping off the grass

Because it is slippery when wet,

As they say,

Won’t make you enjoy the feeling of being there

While it rains

So I set my fears aside

And let the moment be

Let you know that I love you

And that

I miss you.
