I Need Space To Think and Be.

About someone who feels suffocated. Asking for some space.

Our relationship has had its ups and downs,
As stressful as the problems seemed
With strong will, committment and dedication
All our honors were redeemed.

I face my own challenges, in a given day
These I need to deal with, in my own special way.
Always expecting your support and acknowlegement.
However, there is nothing you may do or say.

When I am quiet and enjoying my solitude
Processing, sorting and thinking things through.
You should never take this act personally
Never as a rejection of you.

Developing and preserving all my inner strengths
It is important to me.
I return more energetic, resourceful, optimistic
and impressive, you'll see.

So Let us respect our individual needs
during good and bad times.
That our partnership become stronger
and withstand the test of time.
