Paradox of Longing
A hollow shell
The chill breeze whispers through
But barely a quiver on skin it caresses
Deep within, an emptiness extends
Where feeling itself seems dead
Yearning for warmth
A comforting glow
Yet at its touch, a hidden seed of anguish
A tangled dance
This push and pull
To crave and reject
The chill breeze whispers through
But barely a quiver on skin it caresses
Deep within, an emptiness extends
Where feeling itself seems dead
Yearning for warmth
A comforting glow
Yet at its touch, a hidden seed of anguish
A tangled dance
This push and pull
To crave and reject

Thats a dilemma, for which we must take a serious , final decision
Too much longing sometimes is needless to chase away the fears..
Stay happy

That push and pull…
So familiar, story of my life. Dx with BPD this past August. The more I learn, the more I identify.
Amazing poem.
