Forced love

or solitude

Nevermore the feeling of forced love

Gazing out at the water

Holding on, to my faith

Therapy should not be a necessity

Communication should come naturally

Why would we even want a third party

to guide our journey

100 an hour for blind guidence

dependence and faith which should belong to my lover

Our views some times conflicting,

Lead to nights of communication

reflecting, on the horizon

Of our future

A warm hug, even with tears

opens the path between us

A back rub- stress flows

Alone I feel -our partnership

Our trust survives through our strength

Even hours apart - in our souls, our love grows

I am an elder in a time of freedom. I am now retired. All i want to do is have fun. Without a daily routine, my imagination is one of my only salvations. I am not planning on writing a book, it is just for my own pleasure
