i like it

Felicity

i like it when you set the boundaries
and you know yourself so well
it's kind that you tell people
how damaged you are
but you're alright with that
you don't have to go on
accusing me of not knowing enough
because i know plenty
after all this time
and what i have learned
is to set my own boundaries
they're not to keep you out
because you are in my heart
for all time,darling
but so that i may continue on
and do what's best for me
with confidence and joy of living
not fear of losing you
or apprehension of making mistakes
i'm so sorry i begged before
i wish i hadn't screamed at you
for ruining my life
true and unconditional love
never should make us sad
it should bring us together
in all ways possible
so that we may love each other
to the best of ourselves
for as long as it is naturally desired
in us both


i love you,sweetheart

nice, may i ask what that was written as? lyrics or a poem????

Felicity

thank you.when i'm writing i hear a certain rhythm in the words,not always a melody but a certain cadence.

i don't think i'm a very good songwriter but i try.often when i'm standing at a bus stop or walking i will improvise a song about what i'm thinking.that's what it's all about isn't it?

there's always a lot going on in my head that affects me.like today it's sunny and i'll be going out shortly to walk,and do a few errands.you never know what or who is just around the corner.

all love.

This poem is amazing. One of the best I've ever read on the board. **bows down**
