Poems
Mar 2011
of giving up and loving it
how often now does one let go?
to truly not care
to look the other way
and listen in the same
direction
I have given up many a time
knowing I have failed
or others have failed
me
or perhaps the cards
were drawn wrong
or
the bet just wasn’t
right
but whatever it is
I have always known
that failure is not
an option but cutting
loses is
I don’t want to fight
if there’s no way to
win
so I don’t fight
I don’t want to hurt
myself if someone’s
going to
so I go with someone
else
I don’t want to lose
so I quit
it’s backwards and strange
but it’s what I do
I give up
and enjoy
leaving looking back
for the weak and the
guilty
