It’s started and I’m frightened
Daily, I can feel myself changing – withdrawing into loneliness
Returning me back to a me I’d almost forgotten existed
A me I once knew so well, but left behind long ago
An old friend stood greeting me with familiar outstretched arms
Offering to help me once again isolate & distance myself from all feeling
For when you cannot feel - you can no longer hurt
I love you still - surprisingly
And yes I’m still in love with you - always will be
But my love is now different than it was before - I know that now
I can never give all of myself again –what do I have left to give?
Never could I entrust my deepest thoughts and fears anymore
Just as before I met you
I have no wish to live the rest of my life like that
Never will anyone get so close as to be able to hurt me so badly again
It’s not how anyone would ever choose to be - but needs must
It’s merely me retreating to my lifelong safety net
A survival net I never ever thought I’d have a use for again
Such a shame, such a waste of my life
So just as a flower blooms and then dies with each yearly cycle
I have to find a way to build myself again – begin to grow once more
So that one day - I may possibly get the chance to flower again

The ability you have to bring tears
to my eyes is incredible!
I feel like I know your thoughts as
if they were my own sometimes.
Such a talented being, I'll say a
prayer for you, luv Star x x x |

Your feeling I hear so deep within me, as the tears stream down my cheeks, if I could dry them I would for you and me to, but I guess I cant so hear they come again,
great writing,
