When Less is More

by Colleen Barry
Written 03-02-06

I hope you continue to love me,
May you continue to want me,

Need me and hold me,

            When less is more.

 

When less is more

I fear that you stick around out of pure guilt.

So I pray that instead you stay out of a refuge from the pain of separation.

 

When less is more,

May you know always that I love you.

We’ll get out of this rut;

More like, I’ll clear my head and smile

As you stand waiting

            When less is more.
