Of unconscious feelings
Carried so long
So far, so deep
Toss them aside
In blue recycling containers
Like plastic bottles
I pick up hiking the glorious desert
So worshiped and adored
For who would wish
To leave it messy
Messy outside
Like me inside
Permit him joyous entry
Knowing I’ve been
Waiting for him too long
And I will share the real me
Open me, all of me
Then maybe
Maybe…
This time, he won’t move on
