I swear
the farther you are away from me,
the more i ache.
but this is pointless.
this chase so isn't worth my time
my heart feels full
of water, breathing
is difficult
when i think about
you
because in a month,
you'll be across the country
meeting new people
and even now
i rarely hear from you
and it makes more
sense to just
Let go.
I should just let go of you
find other company
instead of waiting by the
phone, crying
and writing poems.
I should let you go now
So it won't hurt as much
when you leave
But, that thought
just makes me
want to cling to you
desperately.
