I can’t feel your love anymore
Your smiles are empty and cool
You never turned your face away before
Do you take me as some kind of fool?
We used to sit and watch the sky at night
Wrapped together in old woollen throws
your hair shimmering silver in the moonlight
But now, nothing remains but the shadows
We used to be so close, needing one another
But now you always have somewhere else to be
A friend in need, sometimes family, or another lover?
It’s seems anywhere is better than being with me
I can’t stand the silences and I don’t need the pain
I can’t stand to see you avoiding me again
If you are so unhappy, then I guess it’s time
That we stop acting and end this pantomime
So the curtain closes, the lights suddenly flare
The pages of the script, faded and now bare
A relationship collapses, the actors take a bow
Our pantomime is over, the stage is empty now

Excellent write my friend, and yes this is why relationships scare me to death because for some reason it always seems to go south..
I am lucky, I guess. They are not easy, after all it’s two people trying to merge and it’s never going to be a good fit! Being flexible is key, I guess! Or not! You deserve more, I think you just have to hope! Hope the right person comes along!
Right, unfortunately I have never been in that position.. and so glad that you are one of the lucky ones my friend
Spectacular... enjoyed reading this especially the way it flows easily I move from one line to the next without difficulty then the emotions are just flaring
Thank you Shaa, I really appreciate that!

Wonderful emotive words tallisman but I am sure there is another more stable one out there.
