I Don'T Want To Go Any Further Poem by jeevi vitha

I hold back,
so much love that I have for you,
because of the fear of loss,
fear of denial.

I wanted to give up,
I wanted to surrender,
I wanted to stop fighting for you.

The fear of rejection,
eating me up inside,
where I might be left alone in the dark tunnel.

Blindly,
I stumble along the way,
to the place where I own nothing but your love.
I give a thought,
I'm willing to bear the pain
So my dear..
I will let you go,
pretend like nothing had happened.

It's my fault,
for wanting something I can't have,
for desiring forbidden love.
