Waiting Fool
aftermath of a one-sided break up nonet
Letting you go is the hardest thing
For me to do, it hurts to breathe
Each heart beat is agony
Alone I must survive
So that you can thrive
Still, the fool waits
Clings to hope
The fool
Waits

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"

Gosh. I hope you do let go though. Let yourself breathe without ache.
Heartfelt and relatable
Call me a fool because I do that a lot, lol. Loved your Nonet!
So powerful and emotionally deprecating — great poem!
