Fear stifles my words and muzzles my heart
This fear which holds us both apart
My fear is that I'm gonna lose you
And if that should happen
I don't know what I'd do
I could never stand losing you again
Messing up what should have been
You're the source of my happiness
The source of my pain
Loving you is like building a fire
In the middle of the rain


 Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt, and dance like nobody's watching- Anonymus

Ah, yes, you can't live with them and you can't live without them, but we do make life a delightful adventure, don't we?!   Seriously, this is great, Tom! You've expressed yourself very well!

Tom~
Searing thoughts in this piece.

'Loving you is like building a fire
In the middle of the rain'

Nice simile usage in this statement.
