What would you do if you found yourself <br />alone on an isle, alone except for me? <br />Do you think you'd allow yourself <br />to enjoy the intimacy? <br />Or would the swaying breezes blow <br />and chase those thoughts away? <br />As for me, I'd welcome the scene <br />for a minute, an hour or a day. <br /> <br />If a ship came by to rescue us <br />how would I ever know <br />whether or not you'd run to it <br />even if I would not go? <br />I guess the answer is simple enough. <br />You'd dash away like a dart. <br />And I'd remain on the isle, love, <br />with just my withering heart.<br /><br />Edwina Reizer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fear-of-intimacy/
