    Reluctant Heart

    Hold me at a distance

    So afraid to touch

    Inside heart is breaking

    Long for you so much

     

    Choke back tears

    Swallow deeply

    Strength is what I’ve claimed,

    Walk away so silent

    Never knowing any pain

     

    Mind spins circles

    Heart’s despair

    Happiness, memories

    Know you care....

    Still

     

    Yet you…

    Hold me at a distance

    So afraid to touch

    Inside heart is breaking

    Long for you so much

    Simple but deep in its expression of longing and love.

    I can definitely feel the pain of your unrequited love! Keep writing with feeling......

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
