Love Poem: Trying Not To

Trying Not To

It's harder than it looks
I'm trying not to see
I hide myself in books
My mind I try to flee

I can remember the place
This tragedy I knew
I can still see your face
But I'm trying not to

That night was perfect
I'm trying not to
Trying not to love you

I know if I fall
It will only kill me
My heart you enthrall
You hold the key

I need to clear my mind
All I see is you
With you, love I find
But I'm trying not to
