Live without fear

I  can live very well without you

I feel less lonely now

I can be who i am discreetly

Safe from your u

ndertow

I like to have space for.my dreaming

And growing pink cyclamen.

I shall nourish my garden freely

And write with my ancient blue pen.

I like to meet friends in a cafe

Talk with no critical ear.

I loved you before i knew you

But now i can live without fear
