Authors Notes: I apologise for this in advance. I blame it entirely on Derby Station, it does something random to my muse, which then chucks random poem type lines at me, before running off leaving me to sort out the mess! Angst ahoy as usual, and please R&R because otherwise I might write some more!!

Thanks as always to Minh for the usual :)

Huge thanks to Livi for her help with this one :) and especially for the ending. This one was turning into the never-ending poemfic until she let me use her line: "Quietly, touching, simple and stunning. Heartbreaking" Thanks Livi, now I'll be coming to you with all my poemfics! Mwahahah!! :)

I wrote this for my favourite poet and very good friend Pippa. She is much, much better than I am, so go read her work! You will find a link to her page under my favourite authors.

Heartbreaking
For Pip

I fear the pain of love and loss
I fear the pain of loving him
I fear the pain of love at a cost
I fear the pain of losing him

I fear the pain of waking without her
I fear the pain of being alone
I fear the pain of never loving again
I fear the pain of losing her

We fear the pain of love and loss
We fear the pain of a life unloved
We fear the pain of an uncertain future
We fear the pain of a life untouched

But a life lived in fear is a life half lived and
So we risk everything,
And face our greatest fears so we can have our greatest dreams.
Our love.
Quietly, touching, simple and stunning
Heartbreaking.
