My Mistake

Do I have the nerve to tell you to go?
Could I just stand there and let you walk away?
Could I do nothing, say nothing?
I don't know.
Do I really have the need and desire to be free?
Maybe it's "you" that gives me the impression "you" want to be free?
The urge to be free from the lonliness, hurt and pain?
I don't know.
After all, I can't make you love me!
I can't make you need me!
I can't make you want me!
And all these things "I" need!
So go!
Turn around and walk away!
Be free and go!
I let you leave.
The lonliness, hurt and pain grow stronger.
I thought I wanted to be free.
I though you wanted to be free.
As I watch you walk further and further away,
I want to close my eyes, scream your name, and hold onto you for dear life!!
"But it was to late"....you were gone.
I'd made a mistake.
That....I knew.

I do like the emotions here and I come back and read this from time to time. Today I saw something that made me think of this poem and it said, " If you love something, set it free. If it comes back to you its yours, if it doesn't hunt it down and shoot it!( just kidding) Thanks, Anthony

There are those that would say , if it was to be... and I say that if the love was as strong for him as it was for you, he would have come back! His loss, our gain. Thanks for letting us see this emotion of yours! Thanks, Anthony

I've been reading a lot of poems out here on line that I can relate to. I never knew so many ones had that pain. I could never have expressed it in a better way. Nice writing DIXIE LEE
