It is hard Keeping it internalized For such things Keep me paralyzed From time to time Seated there Talking to you One wonders How such a marvelous creature Could be in a life such as mine So close Yet so far Out of reach Yet just a touch away Still... I swore an oath Never to be broken Alas, if such happens I am to punish myself For I am to never Never Be in romance again Or to hold you in my arms... Why? Because I'm scared of hurting anyone Ever again So from now and forevermore As long as I can I shall never love again Or at least never reveal it... Still... I find myself yearning for you Wishing to hold you in my arms Alas, such shall never be For the likes of me So here I stand Alone To bare the ancient tide Strike after strike Wave upon wave Until I grow old And fade from this mortal realm - Jay M August 30th, 2019

My Oath
It is hard Keeping it internalized For such things Keep me paralyzed From time to time Seated there Talking to you One wonders How such a marvelous creature Could be in a life such as mine So close Yet so far Out of reach Yet just a touch away Still... I swore an oath Never to be broken Alas, if such happens I am to punish myself For I am to never Never Be in romance again Or to hold you in my arms... Why? Because I'm scared of hurting anyone Ever again So from now and forevermore As long as I can I shall never love again Or at least never reveal it... Still... I find myself yearning for you Wishing to hold you in my arms Alas, such shall never be For the likes of me So here I stand Alone To bare the ancient tide Strike after strike Wave upon wave Until I grow old And fade from this mortal realm - Jay M August 30th, 2019
This is about those kinds of feelings, but if I don't find a way to place them into words then I fear they shall overwhelm me...
