Can I Give You Up? Poem by Susan Cook
Can I Give You Up?
I miss you.
I have tried to turn my heart to stone
but it won't let me
I have tried for anger
But I simply love you.
My breath is so shallow, it scares me,
I want the wind to blow strong.
A lilly does not stand in coyness or grief
I want to be a lily.
A flower gives from its heart
Like I gave to you from mine.
Should I die like a flower shrivel and weep
And just wait for the seasons to change, the wind to blow
strong, my heart to open once more.
It's a long long time waiting.
I miss you so.
I have clung to your words of hope repeated in my heart.
Can I give you up,
it hurts my love.
Not yet
Not ever?
