greatpoetryI have this person in my life.
i feel in my heart that we are meant to be together, and have been, but he has suffered through years of my anxiety and leaving and returning and confusion.
he tells me that my fight or flight is skewed to flight.
i need to read some poetry that addresses this or can help me relax and accept the love being offered to me.
I dont have any more chances with him, and i need to have my head right before I jump in.
(this is TMI, i know.. but poetry helps my head and heart more than anything else I know!)

arriving a bit late...
Date: 2008-10-05 01:44 am (UTC)Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
-- Aedh Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven by William Butler Yeats
