JEOPARDY

I love you so
But have let it go
Unsaid,
For fear
That in jeopardizing
That which you hold free,
Would do nothing
But drive you,
Far away,
From me.

I would rather be with you,
With thoughts unsaid,
Than be without you,
Because of them.

I am an enigma, even unto myself.
A puzzle unsolved, a mystery maybe until beyond death.  ©das

Yes, I can relate to this poem as well. Interesting - enjoyed. Chris

"Hope" is the thing with feathers-
that perches in the soul....

I have been in the position where I needed to choose tell feelings or not. I didn't and in the end I still lost a good friend and and still have those feelings untold (to anyone). ( It still makes me sad at times. Knowing he is happy with someone else, not me, I lost him!!!!!

Thank you for the nice words. FlowerGirl, how sad, but I feel that if you truly love somebody then you want them to be happy, so rejoice in his happiness and find some of your own.

Oh yes SPIRIT,

relationships tend to be ironic sometimes: aren't we supposed to be honest, but we might jeopardise the relationship if we do.
SO TRUE!!!
