Untitled.. please help! ^_^ Any suggestions are more than welcome.. I'm so far away, Don't think that you can reach me. I'll always keep you distant, Just so you can't hurt me. You'd never want to be close to me anyway. I've always built my walls too tall, And I know I'll never break them. But perhaps I'll lend a ladder, If only you would stay, When I push you away. -Lynne |

Lynne, I used to do this a lot. I'm praying I dont start doing this ever again. I have *sorta* come to grips with the idea that when I push people away I'm the only one who gets hurt. Dawn |

ah yes...the agony is your own when you push them away..love is a risk dear friend-- "it hurts so good" how about "when i push you away" for a title? good writing, i like it dg "Half of what i say is meaningless; but i say it so that the other half may reach you." -Kahlil Gibran |

Thank you Dawn.. yeah, hehe.. too true.. well I don't do this so much now, just feels like it inside sometimes.. ^_^ Lakewalker.. hehe, okok.. I will lend a ladder.. *_^ that better? ^^ For all my poet friends, I've got a little secret door, so they don't need ta climb.. k? ^_^ Yeah, just sometimes a little hard to think, that u have to make the first move.. ie, lend someone the ladder, hehe.. Thanx dg.. ^_^ yeah.. Well this poem was never really aimed for someone I love, because I know if they are a good friend, like such that I have found in some special people, they wont run.. and I wont need to build a wall.. Just sometimes, someone u don't know quite as well will run if u push them.. and it's all been a waste of time, trying to break down your wall for them, 'coz it's down just enough to be hurt by it.. I am so pleased you like this one..  And thank you for the suggestion for title, it's so perfect, hehe.. 'coz that's exactly 'when'... ^_^ Thank you all!! Love, Lynne |

lynne, I would probably dig a tunnel and give you a startling surprise. Or probably hack the password to the secret door's entry. - James The beauty of nature is displayed, not through itself, but through the creatures dwelling within its bosom. |

Build the walls...then supply the ladder..maybe..LOL I'd say this is Paradox a la Femme.. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

It is so much easier to do...push people away when we are too afraid of possible heart break...and we find ourselves making reasons to push, even when there is none. I do it all the time. I am realizing now that by doing that, I am letting all the people who have hurt me in my past win...by not letting others in my heart who truly care, because of the pain the others have caused in the past........beth "And I still believe you can never have too much fiction because reality is such a bore..." - REA |

Made me think a bit when reading this. Amazing how "brave" we can be in so many situations in life but tremble at the thought of "breaking our walls" down. Thanks for the read! |
