I warned you
to stay in the distance,
but you thought
that I would show you
little resistance.
Remorse is a feeling that no longer exists
within this black abyss.
There is no pain,
for apathy is the cure
if you want to remain
alive and sane.

Sometimes clear boundaries are needed in order to guarantee survival.

No boundaries are too severe if you are trying to hold onto to yourself.

Sometimes people push too far, and apathy becomes the only escape.  Clear and concise.

hmm...been there before.  I've struggled with boundaries - not enough...too many...  It's a balance, like a fine line or tight rope - with tension and frustration thrown in the mix.

A ribbon at a time..." - Emily Dickinson
