Motivational Speaker


I can't live anymore in
a relationship thats not real.

I need a woman I can touch and feel.

The very nature of a relationship
is to be together...

It takes a toll on the heart when apart.

Perhaps you're not sincere.
I've been wondering for the
longest time my dear.

The truth is revealed by actions taken
or perhaps by words forsaken.

Show up or stop speaking...

This is very honest. They say "absence makes the heart grow fonder", but that is only sometimes true. Distance is difficult..
Thank you for sharing. Enjoyed!

It's been a long road that you have shared with us.  I hope it works out for you both.  Love the poem ~ and I continue to hope.

I love the bold truth of this last part.

"The truth is revealed by actions taken
or perhaps by words forsaken."

Show up or stop speaking...

James, you've known "me" for as
long as I've known "you"...

quote:
It takes a toll on the heart when apart.

and sometimes it parts the heart when too near.

But I liked it!
