Between the Lines

As Always


Sometimes
the words
don't come at all
and the dreams
I once had
seem to stall
preventing me
from tomorrow's touch.


Sometimes
your teachings
scare me
leaving me wondering
how everything
so natural with you
comes so hard
to me.


I feel opportunity
slipping away
when sensitivity
takes hold
and leaves me
fragile
in your wake.

So I go it alone,
changed by you
but remaining the same
as you left me...

As Always
M

somehow, even when you are hurting, your words are gentle and comforting to the reader

You speak these feelings so well, something like Midnitesun said above.. you convey pain so gently, it doesn't seem to hurt quite so much as it did before I read this.
