Fear
FEAR
Another one that I love deep, strong and has helped
me allow my feelings to emerge and be free
Allowed me to bond with another human being instead
of dismissing and hiding what is inside.
I had grown accustomed to keeping what I feel inside,
it was a sign of weakness for no one to see.
Then along came Judi and I began telling the world what
she meant to me and no longer would the fact
hide
That I was and it was alright to be in love.
She is sick and I am hurt for her but also the fears I feel
are definitely also for me.
Will we be able to grow old together, or will the Creator
of all life see fit to leave alone again?
I have been here before, don’t want to go back no more
being alone is not being free
And in the end to keep losing the one you love is an awful
feeling that you don’t won’t ever end
Until you meet again in Paradise.
