The question it leaves me with, is it better to be hurt or alone? It would seem those are my only choices.

This little while…has been a very long time. Still it all seems the same for me. It is I that is always to blame…Yet never my fault. I don’t know…

Maybe you just need to be alone for a little while.You’ll find someone better.

Not if you don’t wish to be… Not if you have given yourself to another and simply wish love/trust back……

I am myself, a lonely being siting in the dark awaiting your breath, your kiss, your touch, your feel, your smell, your heart.

I hope and pray that our hearts devour each other with bliss.

If the love and trust are not returned though then withdraw yourself, delight in your own company; love yourself, trust yourself.
It reminds me of this poem I read long ago.

The time will come
when, with elation
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other’s welcome,

and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you

all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,

the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.

There are words in that poem that tell me it should not be so… There is pain in this “feast” and there are shared moments in those letters on the shelf… Thank you for sharing the poem.
