things I have been thinking about
Hopeless
You’re still in my heart-
even when I pretend it’s quiet and motionless and dark.
I just can’t forget you.
I’ve tried forcing silence into my mind,
but you re-appear,
more beautiful this time,
than the last time I fought with you in that empty space of mine.
I can’t let you go or out,
I’ve tried talking you away,
walking you away,
running you away,
but the lie I lie to myself won’t leave my eyes.
I’m in love,
and there isn’t anything I can do with that.
