Poem Artwork

My silence forges your anger
yet I cannot speak and risk the loss.
What I want is to cherish you
to love and protect, not abuse you.
To declare you wrong, not in me
or have you make special concessions
never a possibility.
Yet if these are what you most require.
I may well be lost even now
before we're even begun to start.

A conundrum for lovers. I choose speaking above keeping silent.

SOMETIMES SILENCE IS A WISE THING...SOMETIMES IT'S NOT. SOME PEOPLE CAN DEAL WITH IT AND SOME PEOPLE CAN'T. IN ANY CASE, IT IS ALWAYS A BLESSING TO REALIZE A 'MISTAKE'...BEFORE...YOU MAKE IT. THANKS FOR SHARING, BUD, LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
