Poem - Let Me Not Begin Anew

By: John E. Murray, III

Sometimes, we rely on the verses just as much as they rely on us the versers…Enjoy…

Let me not begin anew,
Let me spend my days with you,or you,or you.
My friends, my companions, my creation,
Losing you would be a great devastation.
You are my entire being,
The results of my dreaming.
With every word I breathe,
You are able to achieve
New invigorating life,
To help me deal with all the strife.
I need, I want, I feel
Only what I believe real,
That being you
To whom I will always remain true.
So go forth
And let your intensity be shown,
But, please don’t leave me here,
Alone.
