    • You made me tear up! I don’t know if I could be that brave. I just finished chemo myself. Breast cancer caught early. Lumpectomy. Radiation. That’s why I stopped writing at DUP the last couple months it was there. Just wrote for the first time a week ago and came here. I also fell in love for awhile. Nice guy. Great dog. Held me and went through stuff with me. I couldn’t take the “Are you ok?” even one more time. He was comfortable to be with. A week after my last chemo we stayed at his friend’s cottage. I realized that I was the only thing he had in life. And he focused it on me. I couldn’t be all that. He needs more than just existing. He had 4 good years in the 1990’s but the rest of his life has been being numb. His relationships were all female dominated. His mother and his ex-wife pushing him around. Even his sister who openly hates him. I hated to hurt him but he needs more. I need more. As nice as he was and is – it wasn’t enough for either of us. If my time is limited, I need more than hugs, a smile and “please pass the canned beans”. Writing this comment 2 days after the breakup has inspired a new poem. If I have energy, maybe a post for tomorrow. I did my three today.

    • Thanks Paula for your thoughtful comment.Im no expert in affairs of the heart but my experience in a long term relationship is that space is necessary.
      If someone loves you ‘because they need you’….it ain’t love.
      You’ve done the best thing for both of you

    • hello beautiful Willow there are no answers sometimes for these kind of questions and if you got a response it’s not likely going to be one you like heartfelt and deep write🌹

    • Powerfully penned, Willow. Amazing lyrics, really loved the musical style and arrangement my friend. Love the bass and drums starting the second verse for those first bars, before the guitar comes in on the last bars. Excellent work. Appreciate you.

      • Thank you! On pieces this close to my emotions, I always know when it feels right because I get goosebumps & cry. I appreciate your comment on this one, my friend

    • Powerful and sad. I felt this one. Great writing.

    • I was so angry when I wrote it, & so sad. Hopefully I was able to convey that even a little. She’ll never admit her part. It is what it is. Thank you, girl
