You live in my thoughts.
There are no days
That pass in which you
Are not a part.

I insist upon trying
To keep myself safe.
I attempt to deny myself
The feelings

That once put me
Into your arms.
It is an effort
At keeping control.

Control of myself,
Control of my life.
But it seems I lack
Control of my love.

(sigh) I believe we can all relate to these feelings, for sometimes we feel uncertain in spite of ourselves, but I believe as long as we keep a positive mental attitude and believe in ourselves, we can always control our own love! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is very heartfelt! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

control?  Oh, gosh, I know this feeling!  When you feel you are losing love you are out of control, and that's our nature, it makes us act crazy, believe me I know it makes us scared, this poem made me so sad.

And it goes on, life's never ending sruggle, the battle between our heart and our mind. Thanks for sharing.

Ladyhawke - very true thoughts you write. Love is very hard to control, never found the answer to this one...
