I can you feel you there, and making up things doesn't help for long.

I really like your poem alot. It speaks to that isolation in your separateness, and sadness, the solitary pain of "not going the distance". Beautiful imagery, and so well done.

@GoldFreya: Thank you so much 😊

@29wordsforsnow: A harsh truth, despite how hard you try to convince yourself...

For the most part, I'm extremely good at choosing my own partners so that I never end up here. But I've seen many others that have arrived there and even a few have admitted to the failure you have described.

A relationship like the one depicted by your poem can ALWAYS be attributed to one main problem. Both sides of the relationship focused strictly on the physical attraction to their partner without seeing the real person within.

Physical attraction is the catalyst while emotional attraction is the path to true love.

"Partners?"

Forgive me for belabouring the obvious, but were you what you imply, that wouldn't be plural. Right?

It's the internet, even a dog can be a 6'3, 230 lb street fighting god who dates Vicki's Secrets models.
