Never

poem

By Maryam BatoolPublished 5 months ago • Updated 3 months ago • 1 min read

Never falling again until a hundred years

Never letting anyone explain my fears

.

Never chasing again ever for a true love

Never choosing them ever over me or above

.

Never loving them more than I love me

Never letting them break a branch off my tree

.

Never selling happiness for their sake

Never settling myself for a weak take

.

Never telling myself, "I'm not worth enough"

Never leaving my car to walk so rough

.

Never waiting for them to come and heal

Never letting them choose how I feel

.

Never stealing the spark I have from me

Never playing with my heart for them to see

.

Never welcoming them to the gate of my heart

Never becoming the target of their dart

.

Never believing, "I don't deserve better than them"

Never claiming, "I won't live if you pull my stem"

.

Never feeling weak again so they have a chance

Never accepting their fake love or glance

.

A/N:

Love is my genre of writing. Doesn’t mean, that every poem is about me.
