— A poem of potpourris
Keep You At Bay
(phrase) preventing someone or something from having an effect

I write for hours, read even more
decline calls and went for a walk
you said it already but I refuse to know
though it’ll soon make it to my core
you said it already but I refuse to accept
though it’ll soon make its way home
I need to face the truth
I must, or I shall perish
within the cavernous abyss of realization
that it’s her you’re after
and never me
to begin with.
