Never Me

Never Me by Jack A.S. Dunce Because I love, I must learn to set free, and to face the truth that I know will hurt -- not even I would ever choose me Untangling a baloon stuck on my tree It soared away to the far outskirt Because I love, I must learn to set free A shipwreck wasting away in debris Stay in the life raft! It's right to desert -- not even I would ever choose me A bird cared for and nurtured would flee despite a shower of the world's comfort Because I love, I must learn to set free Dusk's hush stirred by the buzz of a lone bee on hover over a rose and a dirt -- not even I would ever choose me I'll stay here where I am and let you be No more words to say or acts to exert Because I love, I must learn to set free, but even I would never choose me ©️pgmr 07/07/2024
