POEM STARTER

Submitted by TheQuillPen

Write a poem about giving up.

It doesn’t have to be negative, it can be about giving up something or someone that’s been holding you back.

Time

It’s time

Time to let go

Time to walk away

But I never wanted to

All I’ve ever wanted was your love

Your love

Your touch

Your hugs

Your warm smile

Until on a random Tuesday

You decided I wasn’t worth loving anymore

I felt like I was sinking

So far down

Being pulled

So far down

So I know it’s time

Time to let go

Time to give up on the idea of having you

The idea of us actually making it

Even saying it now hurts me so deeply

But I know I have to give up

Even if I don’t want to

Even if I want to say frozen in time

When I first met you

When we first locked eyes

When we first hugged

Oh how I wish I could just freeze time

Right on the moment we met

Right on our first conversation

I feel sick

Sick to my stomach

Thinking of everything

Everthing that could be going through your head

Why couldn’t you just stay

You’ve given me everything I never had

Love

Kindness

A warm expression

Everything I sat in my room alone and prayed

To God that I could have one day

And you gave me everything

But one day

You decided it wasn’t going to work out

So I guess I’ll have to give up on you

On the idea of you

On the thought of ever talking to you again

Even though we ended on good terms

I could never see you

See you as anything else

Other then someone who was the answers to all

My prayers

But it’s time to give up

Because it’s not going anywhere being stuck

Might as well just give up and move on

It’s easier said then done

But only if you knew how much I wished

I didn’t have to give up just yet

But it’s time…
