My soul
saddened
my abandonment
from the self
dwells
detached
cannot find
any connection
inside
I try
but can't
Sometimes I need
that solitude
of heart
Lingering feelings
that hang out
waiting for
the chance to
attack
Defensively
I hide from
that part of me
that loves you
still
It's too much
You, my soul and me

It sounds like you are having an internal battle with yourself. I hope the best of you wins. Very well written poem. I know these kinds of feelings well.

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

I can understand these feelings..sometimes I try my best to hide from love...but it always shows its face. *s

You said it about as perfectly as it can be said.  Sometimes it seems that it is all we are left with.  Good write.  *s*

On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free.

Heartfelt words that are penned so beautifully. I have been there, I'm sure many of us have, and know exactly what you're speaking of

I have spent the day on the verge of tears.
Your beautiful heart allowing such tenderness....thank you....

across the land of dreams. In your heart, I'd always be.

It's too much
You, my soul and me

Indeed , it's too much...and you have expressed that raging battle between the three so well....and quietly sad.

Thank you
