I’ll Let Go Eventually
You expected me a week ago
But here I am still clinging to you
I don’t want to let go yet
For the world might hurt me to get to you.
But I know it is inevitable
And I’ll have to let go soon
But mum I don’t want to
For the warmth you give me
I’ll find nowhere else.
We will never have a connection
Like the one we developed over these months
But maybe it will be stronger
Even when we’re not literally connected.
So I’ll see you soon mum
And I hope daddy is happy to see me
Because I know when I get out
I’ll scream and cry
For a connection broken.
When I first open my eyes
I hope to see you,
The person I’ve been connected with
For so many months.
And give me a pretty name,
And love my eyes,
Because I’ve spent so long in the dark,
The light might make me seem ethereal.
