POEM STARTER

Not Just Yet

I’m not ready

To move on just yet

Let me pretend

Only for a little while

I understand that nothing

Will ever be the same

Yet again

I’m by myself

But I’ll be in my own world

Playing make-believe

Now I’ll never

Have to let go

Or be

All alone

I’ll go back

Not exactly to the start

But to the time when I

Wasn’t sure if I loved you yet

Things seemed so

Much simpler than

If I hadn’t had met you I

Wouldn’t have felt all this

Love or pain but now

Everything feels the same

Close my eyes and imagine

Being back in your warm arms

I stay quiet just

Listening to you talk

Yet now I can’t exactly

Remember your voice

Or feel the heat

Of your warmth

Make-beliving you’re here

Doesn’t seem to work

I’m not ready to

Move on just yet

So I’ll be waiting here like I’ve

Done since the day we’ve first met
