#304 I’M READY TO LIVE ON MY OWN
THE UNKNOWN
Copyright 2018 by Judy Unger
–
I go through my day to places that heal me
I cannot stay, you no longer feel me
My words will stun you, ‘cause I’ve begun to
leave you behind; I escape in my mind
–
My tears I hide when you are near me
I cry inside where you can’t hear me
I’ve watched you brood; avoid your mood
There’s no connection without affection
–
I run from you; don’t know where to
The touch you withhold leaves me cold
That’s when I withdrew
I feel so alone; your heart is like stone
I lie awake and feel my heart break
I’m ready to face the unknown
–
I’ve known you so long I must alert you
This feels so wrong I hate to hurt you
With all this pain, I can’t remain
You might not miss me, ‘cause you never kiss me
–
I run from you; don’t know where to
The touch you withhold leaves me cold
I’ve stopped loving you
For years I stayed, ‘cause I was afraid
don’t even know where I will go
But I am ready
The touch I crave has made me so brave
–
I run from you; don’t know where to
I lie awake and feel my heart break
I’m ready to live on my own
I’ll face the unknown
