poetry session

My blog turns 1 today!!! Well, actually it was a few days ago, but, what's a few days?
To celebrate, here is one of my older poems that a wrote a few years ago.  Short but sweet...enjoy. :)






At My Reach




I keep you close
Enough for me to
Reach for you when
I need to
Feel you
Want you
Be with you
Yet
Far away
Enough for me
To just let me be
I push you away when
I feel you
Construe
Misuse
Abuse




I get to know you more
And what you’re about
But still I’m feeling doubts
So anxiously
I keep you at arm’s length
And I reveal just enough of my heart
Simultaneously
I protect myself from hurt
That my come my way
But see


With all this mystery
My arms are feeling weary.
