Letting You Breathe

selfstruggles

I am still feeling very frightened,
My sense of insecurity has been heightened,
When you aren’t standing right by my side,
I feel like I just want to hide.
But I have to be strong for us to last,
That’s the only thing of me you’ve asked,
I love you & I hold you so dear,
So I will now deal once & for all with my fear.
It’ll be hard as we both know,
But for us to breathe I have to let go,
It has damaged too much of us already,
Knocked us around, knocked us unsteady.
I was suffocating you but I didn’t realise,
I could not hear your muffled cries,
As my needs were blocking those of yours,
I was trying to trap you behind closed doors.
Keep you in my sight not let you leave,
I was killing you not letting you breathe,
I failed to see all this because I was too scared,
To open my eyes & be selfless I wasn’t prepared.
But now I am as I nearly lost you,
Although I still want to stick just like glue,
I will back off & give you your space,
As from your heart I know our love you won’t erase.

38 Special said it best ...
" Hold on loosely, but don't let go
If you cling too tightly you're gonna loose control "
Here for ya Pixie, anytime ... drop a note anytime ... I'll leave the light on ...

i really liked the sense of unaware physical power that was in this poem, whether you ment it to be that way or not it was really great seeing it, i liked the whole sense of doing something that you weren't aware of doing i saw in the poem.... good job |

I'm glad you had these people to help you through your difficult time.
I'm sorry that you almost lost your love pixie.
I'm sorry that I wasn't there for you though.
Anywho, great write.
MUAH!
