I dont want to love you anymore
but I cant seem to make myself stop.
This isnt how its supposed to feel,
this desolation
this emptiness
this constant pain.
Every day I tell myself
this is the day
this is the day I will stop,
stop loving you.
And I go to sleep each night
hoping that when the sun rises,
I can look at you and feel nothing.
I dont want to love you anymore.
I dont want to love you anymore.
I dont want to love you,
but I still do.

Falling IN love is the easy part.

Falling out?...

Aww no I hate it when love comes to an end.

If your afraid of the dark, then why did you come?

If I truly loved someone
and they could not return it,
I don't think that alone
would make me want to stop,
even if in silence...

Welcome home Paula...
it's been a while since you graced us...

Paula, I could feel it, your words..for I have said that to myself many times...but it isn't easy and I don't think one ever really stops  loving...they just bury it if they have to.

Paula darling heart sister, you know my dearest friend, every single time I read you I’m left pondering how special your writing is. Not only because you plumb the depths of thought, not even that your writing takes my mind on a trip somewhere it has never been, no the reason your writing speaks to me so is that it stirs the recesses of my own soul. Brings forth images and thoughts that I might have pondered but didn’t have the courage to examine. YOU shine your light on them so well and I love it utterly.

I’m hoping darling girl that this isn’t you and it’s just a poem, because you’ve written it so well it feels as if it is you. I can feel the depth of emotion in this darling heart and it aches simply aches with it all.

Wonderful writing darling heart, be happy and be well. I’ve missed you sooooooooo very much, send me an email darling girl pretty please.


Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy


Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the earthquake wind and fire

I sense a lot of anger but also a lot of sadness in this poem, Paula...
Very well expressed.
