Forward Always #2

once again, into the lonely fray

once again, needing to be loved

again to feel

to be comforted

be appreciated

necessary

almost slipped up

an easy, complacent non-love beckoned

no hassles, no guilt, no feelings

better to wait

higher the rewards

of a difficult yet satisfying love

looking now to the future

to the frustrations

the joys and sorrows

loving and living
