FallingAwake2

I guess I care enough to notice,

that I really just don’t care…

about anything else,

aside from you.

Backlogs of messages and mail,

prove my attention’s been amiss.

While you wear it well,

I need to find a way 

To live in my time between you.

    Why?

    • FallingAwake2

      I'm scared of getting so absorbed in a relationship I forget to take proper care of myself.

        I may have read it wrong but don't sell yourself short. We should at the very least receive what we give. We need to know our worth.

          wonderful clarity
          while being true to your poetic potency
          modernity is hard to word artistic
          so much is blunt confrontation
          and/or toxic wordless drama
          it doesn't lend itself
          for our subtle poetic reveals
          (anyway i'm blabbering
          just a great read, loved
          the sharp conversational tone
          bringing in that edge
          we need to maintain our boundaries
          during such exchanges)
          really i could go on, love this
          thank you!
