This really hits home for me on a personal level, I have sabotaged relationships out of fear of loosing control of my place, and compromising myself to belong with someone, else, I've seen the risks, and ventured near but never in the halls of Love. Great work Mr. Draper. greatly worded

The one thing worse than being alone, is wishing you were alone. Sad and striking, all the same. Wonderful write.

Never venturing for fear of failure, Too afraid to find one to care. Years grow longer lived all alone These lines beautifully sums up the crux of the poem. A very powerful write! !

This has a gentle flow and is filled with compassion. The rhythm is subtle yet comfortable. It seems to me quite sad as if a soul sits on the sidelines, observing life stroll by but to scared to dip his toes in the pool of life. Thank you Karen

It is sad that so many people end up living this way. Looking for a life parter, getting heartbroken and living their lives completely alone and lonely. Hopefully those that feel this way eventually find a person to melt the ice that surrounds their hearts.
