Pushing Me Away Poem by Randy McClave

if you push me away
This I promise I make and I will say,
It's a promise and not a plea
But, you won't find me where you left me.
I guarantee you I will move on
Just like a chess pawn,
I will always move forward
For true happiness I look toward.

My heart and faith is indeed large
It's the size of an ocean barge,
I want to help and love someone truly
And always help and love them newly.
But, no matter of my heart size
One day I did finally did realize,
It's not big enough to deal with people who's not lenient
Who decide to love me when for them it's convenient.
