I gently lose my own strength-
Tolerance does not become me…

Indecisive negligence, in who I am-
Brings me to my knees,
A
    Fallen
              Woman…

Time stands, I let everyone fall-
Resistance to say no, begging withdraw…

Can I not cooperate-
Must I always hesitate?

My life-
Forever a debate…



 Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...

emotional poem D,
i relate to these feelings...insecurities and doubts--they  test out hearts dont they... but your not fallen...just human...(smile)
take care, jm

 Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders
And it makes me want to touch you there.
And the light in your eyes makes me feel
Like there's something much better out there
Something kind...
And I know someday I might be looking around
Trying to find some purpose
Well purpose it can't be that hard to find
As long as I've got the wind...
The wind and your love to carry me.

I too can very much so relate..such emotions do indeed tear at one's heart.  Exellent work.

devina, ah the questions of what one should do..... well just close your eyes and fall, he will catch you......

**Note** don't do this alone unless you are near a hospital.

I think most people can relate to this. Some decisions are harder than others. Great poem!

ahhhh....my mistress devina, clarity comes from comedy and comedy from error.  When in doubt, plunge forward.  It works for me.

Wonderful poem my friend. . .

Devina~
With a heart as open and honest
as yours ... you will reap the
harvest of gaining much though
the fall.

Take a deep breath ... and plunge !
You have a safety net ... it's your faith.  It will not let you down.
Love you

Sometimes we spend so much time with the "wrong One" when someone new comes along we are always afraid of the unknown.  But we can't allow are fear to rule our world.  Let yourself go....
