Let go

Lost in the shadow,
of a thought where I belong,
in shades of longing and loving,
I explore my belief,
of being in love,
I know the feeling exists,
I try to drown it,
once bitten twice shy,
for I touched the moon once,
and it makes me afraid,
so amidst the poisoned hemlock blooms,
under the cover of the night,
past the witching hour,
I just close my eyes and feel,
my lips move but no one can hear me,
for they listen with their ears,
when I speak in the language of the heart,
so I rule,
In my destiny,
in the ruins of my past,
crumbling before me,
this time I let go,
for this time I understand love....
