I Look At You

why do i sit here all scared and stuff if you asked me why? i'd say i don't know is this the quiet before the storm? if it is, lets get on with it because i don't like it. i should not be scared of anything after what i have gone thru these half-passed of lately. darling, help me to understand how you can be so loyal when i am so unloveable i want to be very, beautiful for you. please, please make everything alright and do all the things that you do to make me SIMMER DOWN. so, now i do lay me down to sleep and i keep creeping closer to you all night as you sleep as if you haven't a care in the world and i just worry. to my beloved, janetta

I like the human move tagging the concerns that make us worry ... nice flow and a balanced sense of timing. Bravo.

I've always been a worrier too, especially when it comes to love. Somehow just never believed his feelings were true due to past experiences. Time will turn to trust hopefully, and the freedom to love fully without fear will be glorious. Good luck. Love, Shar
