I want to say "Yes, it's for you."
But the truth is, it is for me.
My words are my own
to be devoured
and spit out, allowing me
to release the private.
Allowing me to brave the fears
and walk the path
of necessity.

There are times I talk myself
into giving up what has meaning to me
in order to grow into tomorrow
and then I renege on the "what I should do"
because familiarity breeds comfort
and confidence.

I want those shared evenings and to wake
beside the warmth of another.
I want to feel needed and care for same.
I want to say "Yes, it is always for you."
But I can't because the truth is
I am looking beyond tomorrow~~

BRAVO! or BRAVA! LOL, whatever
gift yourself the right
to take the day
carpe diem or whatever
it is your life, m'dear
but I do understand
the thought, that 'twould be nice to have
a special someone to share the moments with

A familiar subject to me, Maureen. It's very well worded. I 've know persons who thought every thing was directed at them. That drives me crazy! I say the world is much bigger than to focus on only one person. Enjoying the reflective thinking this brings...
