Have You Got It Figured Out Yet?

Have you figured it out yet?
Have you figured out what it is that
Makes you feel separated,
from yourself?

I have.

You opened up.
You've finally let people see what was inside.
And now you can't seem to close that all up.
You've found your weakness.
You've hit your breaking point.

Now you need to sew it up.
Sew up that intensity.
Fasten up the part of you that is seeking that...
Intimacy.

That part of you needs to be reopened at a different time.
Reopened, by that one other person,
That person who wants it unfastened because it defines you;
The one that finds uniqueness inside that maybe others don't.

Until you feel you found that person,
Do what I tell you.
Close. It. Back. Up.

yes, I so feel you here with this piece. It's like you give of yourself and it gets taken and nothing is ever recipricated...or at least not the way you were expecting... its hard to recover from something like that.

I understood it but, just hope that isn't what you are doing. That is so sad when someone closes up.

Yes ma'am! Good poem, loved your sentiments here. Exactly what I've been thinking lately. If you don't feel than you can't get hurt - but that's a dangerous line to walk.
