A poem. For humanity.

By Renée 

I know my emotions.

I know that you’re not sure about yours.

I know that words for you don’t mean the same thing as they do to me.

But they’re all that I’ve had for a long time.

I can’t let you go.

You give me hope for a future that used to seem bleak.

You make me want to scream at the world how amazing you are.

You make me want to be a better person.

You make me want to never let you go.

You are the one who I want to go through the bad times with.

Just let me tell you what I know.

Just let me enjoy you.

And even though I would like to hold you forever,

I’ll let you go when you want me to.
