only incognito will i visit
places that still inspire my tears
if memory drags me there
and imposes its will on me
even then, my eyes will look away
and my heart will harden
to the pain of all i remember
i'll never be recognized there
i will not visit frustration
and abuse, no, nor will i
ruminate lies and false promises
of those who cannot give love
except in excess to themselves
i will not be bothered anymore
about hearts heated to steam
then frozen solid to ice
i will give love where love is wanted
and expect nothing..... as always
knowing the high plateau of love
will be its own reward and then
when i plunge down into the canyon
of dark deception and rejection
i won’t break again, no never again
i’ll not visit ditches of despair again...ever
Once burned twice shy! No player will ever play me again! Take my softness as a sign of weakness. I am still tryin to figure out if I am willin to pay the high price for so-called free love! So-called love is always a crap shoot, most time there aint no winners! LOVE! Sissy
I read then reread this one for it brought back a surge of memories. I felt that way once after I was badly hurt by someone I would have died for, sadly I don't think I ever stopped being that way...I love, I crave, I desire but no woman will ever lay me down that way again..

Join me as we travel together on the road called "Aging." I will be sharing my personal experiences with you and offer ideas on how we can better navigate the complex byways of our older years. Grief, healing, generations, ancestors, and more.
