They say....

Self Portrait

It's funny to me, that all of you say, without exception the same words and phrases.
"Your skin is so very soft it's as smooth as silk, impossible to resist.
" Your voice soothes me and brings me peace-
your whispers caress my soul-
your songs bring healing-
your laughter lifts my spirits, Speak and I'll be freed."
"Your perfect, so petite in stature yet powerful and strong."
"Your eyes mesmerize and look deep into my soul."
These are but a few of the many accolades I hear.
But at the end of the day, I'm left alone.
All of you said the right words and convinced me to love.
Time and time again I empty myself , filling you with my essence making you whole.
Leaving me void.
