The Way of Intimacy

Lost in the heart of One Too Few
Or One Too Many, who never knew
The rhythms of a soulful heart,
The need of love that could barely start

Lost in the minds of More Than One
Who called to mind when love was done,
Who feared love's loss more than its life
I need love more than to be a wife

Why do I hide from another's fear?
Why slink away for another year?
Why withdraw my love because you do?
I am not one to love so few

To fear openness, fear honesty?
How can you consider this to be
The way to true intimacy
When this, the way to love's simplicity?
