Let me close my eyes
and sleep at last.
To remember the things
that have been haunting me.
I Have left it behind,
behind in the past.
Let me go and let me stand by my soul.
To we both have to say goodbye
because we didn’t outlast.
And I want you to know;
“Let me be the one
to stare with my eyes closed.
No more, no less, to be passed.”

““Let me be the one / to stare with my eyes closed.” Wow!!! It feels like we were on the same wavelength here. I was writing along similar lines earlier. (But, “poetry, interrupted.” 📽 💁🏼♀️ ;)) So lovely, Jojo, peaceful, and with a healing vibe. Thanks for providing gentle love, for tired eyes. 💛

Oh Goodness!! Enough, still not much enough because your poems are inescapable for me I’ll read all of them, as uh know day after day. But like how the fuck some one can write this much beautifully!? Love it, it soothes my mind just as my heart does, and it’s always I’ve supported my mind instead heart so mind needs more rest than heart for me haha, because heart is already Phoenix so. Anyways you write too much good you know!? Well you should know.
