At times, I do fear losing you,
when days go by and we don't speak,
when I have no time to come to you
when your moments are weak.

And then there's times I just don't care,
better off without you there.

At times, I feel you close
and I reach out to touch,
usually when you have no time
when I need so much.

And then there's times I just don't care,
better off without you there.

Well here you go again, you just never hide Dixie, just bring everything outfront and let people pick over the things they like, but then i like all of it?..Thank you..

The fear of losing dissipates and goes away... with the realization that loss has already happened... and we move on.

Thank you for sharing a write of emotion that typifies many. Nice Job.

You are a master of expressing relationships, but you knew that, didn't you?

I know what you are saying here...
You express words for many of us.

love seems to make no sense...why can't it be easier...why can't trust and distance be true to the heart...your words express those questions...........

In love, we still need individuality and space...love is a hard nut to crack.

Hi,

My name is June. I'm new here, and this is the first comment I'm making on this site.

I full out enjoyed this piece, it rolls easily off the tongue. Most importantly, it has the ring of truth and authenticity about it.

Actually, I think you hit the bottom line of what happens in all our relationships at some time or another. Fortunately, we all survive, to various degrees.

Thank you for your truthiness and add me to your list of admirers.

*To thy own self be true

To thy own self be true
