The Web Poetry Corner - Dwayne Pagnotto - Farewell To Myself

Farewell To Myself

by

Dwayne Pagnotto



The heart

Painfully shy

Longing for acceptance

Reigns in its desires

Believing nothing good

Can ever come to it.

And therefore refuses to try.

Hurts the one it cares for

Then begs for forgiveness

But can never

Forgive itself.

Lives in the past now

Where dreams become

A way of life.

Tries to find

The right words to say

To somehow

Make the pain go away.

And remains forever

One beat short

Of dying

From regret.

NEXT?
Why don't you look at I pity them
