Untitled ("I know I have it in me...")
oh, goodness...memories...lookin back on some of these poems...haha...well anyway....this one was written November 29, 2001....so that was uhh, what...1st semester of my senior year in high school...? yeah...
I know I have it in me
To do what I really must do.
It is more important than anything else is my life,
That I permanently forget about you.
I made this deal with my heart,
One of the best promises I will ever make.
I told it I will do everything in my power
To make sure it will never break.
I cannot break my promise,
For my heart knows where I am at all times
And it will not hesitate to ache,
If it feels you are anywhere near my mind.
I know I have it in me
To pretend you don't even exist.
But this isn't always so easy,
When you seduce me with a random kiss.
I made this deal with my soul -
One which I respect and cherish much.
I told it that no matter what...
It and I shall never, under in any circumstances, lose touch.
I cannot break my promise,
For my soul is a lot like my heart.
And if it senses me thinking of you,
It just might slowly fall apart.
I like you, I do,
But my heart & soul know I should not,
Even though my body cannot deny the way you
Stimulate my spot.
I know I have it in me
To move on and search the seas.
But I cannot ignore the sensation
Of you weakening my knees.
I made this deal with my body -
One as relevant as any other.
In the given situation,
I have the power to reject my lover.
I am to resist your temptation...
If I must, then I will.
But we agreed that no matter how hard I try,
I couldn't ever help how I feel.
I cannot break my promise,
Because my body is up there with my heart and soul,
And it manages to maintain
A very-much equivalent role.
I know I have it in me
To let you go with ease.
So, in satisfying my heart & soul,
How shall my body be pleased?
Fate, please help me.
Let me know, is this meant to be?
Am I to follow my heart...go with my soul...
Or listen to my body? Tell me my destiny.
I know I have it in me
To do what I need to do.
One thing is for damn sure...
I cannot afford the energy in liking you.
ha, goodness...didn't seem as long on paper :?.....but anyway...i used to really love this poem...just thought i'd share...
