Becoming Closer

I have a problem with closeness, and I know this now. The problem is that I am a loner, and I am not sure I can give something I don't know I have.

 

Closeness is an illusion in my vision

I don’t understand it

But I sure do fear it

What if I let you in, would you stay?

Or would you leave me like everyone has

No one close stays with me

No one can get close enough to stay

I have been stabbed in the back

I have been broken too many times

And if I let you in my life

New fears will come

Even if you stay, would you be happy

I can not comprehend your beauty without color

I would rather see you happy, then be selfishly happy

I know I can’t make you happy

I now I am worthless in your eyes

Do not look at me

Do not acknowledge I exist

I can’t even handle you saying my name

In fear of what blasphemy you speak

In fear of that name next to your purity

Trust me when I say

We are becoming closer then ever

When I walk farther away

-- We are becoming closer than ever
-- When I walk farther away

How very true these words so often are ...

Why don't you just break through the wall you build around yourself in fear to get hurt?! The world behind the wall is black and white, while the world outside it is full of color of all sorts.

Why don't you simply let fate guide you? Go outside - breathe in as strongly as you can and shout out to the world what you want it to hear and start living!!!
Squeeze every bit out of happiness and endure the bad moments as all have to do - that's life, but worth the trip ...

Absolutely great again!!! I'm a fan ...

What an intriguing image!

I would never trust such words. That's not what I see.
