Closure Poem by Marcquiese Burrell

I've just remembered when
in early years, I longed to feel complete
I'd often battled with a fear of love
heart filled with agony

I taught myself it'll be okay
as I grew, those feelings changed
I started looking towards all hope
Help keep my heart from shattering

I generally disliked the life
others lived who had everything
I'd retreat to a place
Where I stayed safe to remain happy

A man and woman cared for me
They'd love me unconditionally
Been there so long and finally
Fled to find a missing part of me

what I find I may not like
could be a possibility
wise words she told me
She saw the hurt and wants to see some closure that I'd truly need
Help with this endless suffering

Seen me struggle and fully recovered
I found all I need in life when I discovered
Someone I kept close to me
Would have hurt just as badly
Took your tears as an apology
You're apart of my life
I'm going always love you
and I may have a hard way of showing that
but I really love you
