Once in a while, a special relationship comes along that has us firing on all cylinders, and feeling an implosion may be imminent. They are hard to ignore, hard to forget, and will occupy our minds for years to come. And if we’re lucky, will last a lifetime.

Germination by A Faded Romantic’s Notebook

Once that dark

decadent

dangerous

but oh so delicious

seed

has been planted

in her fertile

creative

intelligent

imagination

it cannot help

but grow.

I Thought We Lost It by Michelle Ayon Navajas

i thought we lost it

that with which why we love

the most together

the endless conversations

the pointless arguments

the nonsense “sense of humor”

i thought we lost

who wouldn’t?

time and distance

made us strangers

life changes and perspectives

made us different people

or so i thought

i thought we really lost it

i really thought so, that

there wouldn’t be stories to tell

there wouldn’t be crazy theories to argue

there wouldn’t be silly jokes to laugh with

i thought we really really lost it

but i was wrong

for no amount

of time

or distance

can break

that crazy bond

that crazy connection

we have,

only for each other
