Nothing But Myself


When I need reassurance
you give me silence.

When I need truth
you give me
fabrication
and lies.

When I need to trust
and believe you give
me no one to trust
and nothing to
believe in.

When I want you
and need you,
you give me
nothing but
myself.

Wow do I know how you feel!  Great write and I hope that things can be mended with this person.  If not, sometimes we're better off without.

James, it seems to me that getting yourself back ain't half bad! You are sweet, loving, and romantic!

You deserve better than what she appears to be able to give.

A touching write, Island Man.

James,

Nice poem I like it.  Nice shape too.

That's all we really need though, isn't it--just ourselves.
