How, When, Where, Why

How sad that fear of rejection can keep you from feeling secure You show love but the words don't come out You hold on tight in your hugging but if asked, you hide your feelings Kisses are so heart felt but again, fear keeps complete feelings at bay How can we change the world you are hiding in? What will make you know that you are loved? Why are you so afraid of showing your feelings? Who has hurt you so badly you can not accept what is being given? Where will this all leave us? Will we ever be in complete harmony? How, when, where, why? What will be the answer?

Sadly I know the answer to the question. I also know that you have the strength to overcome the fear. It is important to know that your partner also has his own fears so be gentle with h each other and enjoy the gift you have been given. Love is a fountain of youth of sorts so drink fully from the stream.

Every one has fears but we need to recognize them. We are working to make things right. I recognize my strength so am being more careful and not pushing when I normally would . Need to see where this goes. Love You Mom
