POEM: Let Me Know.

I try to free my mind of you,
Working so hard to fill the void.
Shades of stormy waters where,
I find myself adrift.
Palette of my life reduced,
too many shades are blue.

I'm still waiting for you to let me know,
How am I supposed to feel?
Please let me know now my lover,
was it ever real?
Can you be sure you can depart,
harbour no regret?
Can you really be so sure,
that you don't love me yet?

I try to calm my heart but you,
Permeate every pore,
and I can't move on.
The breath of you ignites the flame,
you are my oxygen.
I suffer in your silence,
and my body aches for you.

Still waiting for you to please let me know,
How am I supposed to feel?
You must let me know now my lover,
were you ever real?
You seem so sure you can move on,
harbour no regret?
Can you really be so certain,
you don't love me yet?

I try to tell myself, I do,
To veil my heart in hope,
my hunger to conceal.
Wash addiction from my soul,
at last begin to heal,
Deny my desperate need
to know still more of you.

Still waiting for you to please let me go.
How am I supposed to feel?
Please tell me true, once and for all
was it ever real?
Secure in your certainty,
that you harbour no regret,
I shun my need and beg of you,
"Will you release me yet?"
