Sinking

I am sinking down
Slowly
Into solitude
You cannot understand my pain

It hurts me
To see you kill yourself slowly
We could be good for each other
But you will not have it

So here I will remain
By your side
Like duckling to it's mother
I will seek shelter under your wing

Until you are gone
No one's fault but your own
And I will be alone
Sinking

I love to read first posts. It's always interesting to see what a person posts first and to see what they follow with. But then I don't spend much time here anymore, so I'm glad I caught this piece here.

This was my favorite line. Very touching amongst all the sorrow. Of course that only makes it sadder.
Keep posting and hopefully I'll catch you the next time I visit Passions.
Welcome!

A strong and aching feeling to this write,
came forth in a powerful presentation.
Difficult to love someone lost to themselves.
