Three Words
I love the sound of those
three little words you say, but
warm waters pull me from the shore and
I doubt you. My feet no longer touch bottom and
I’m afraid
Even when
our bodies share the
deepest possible touching,
I feel alone.

Author's Note
My married lover often says, "I love you," but I have my doubts.
I haven't told him about my mother's absence. There's much I haven't shared with him.

Gotta start sharing if you want this love to last. It's not just me, all the agony aunts would say the same. It's all about communication unless you secretly wanna dump the dude. Just sayin'. ;-)

Be honest with people. I'm here if you need an ear to listen to. Keep on writing.

I appreciate the vulnerability of the writing here. I resonate with the feeling of being alone while with someone.
Thank you for your insight. Such a strange sensation, but I'm learning it's common to many of us.
