When I make the effort
to dig deep
into who you are,
know you are loved.
In awe,
inspired,
captivated,
interested,
dazed,
uplifted.
Yes, in love with your being.
I’ll align myself
up close,
breathing in your talent
and exhaling
knowledge and pride.
You’ve won my heart.
I’m There For You
love invisible
strong support and kind actions
feel my love, dear one

I come to you willingly
offering my being
watch as I flourish with you
healing myself and you
with our love
I melted into your arms
to flow freely
through your veins
emanating through your pores
to cover your essence with mine
Two, still separate
and unique,
blending and deciding
togetherness
was a better formula
We intertwined our lives
to nurture what was to come
a future filled with goodness
and pleasure
being strong as one

Find Your Way Home
i’m bathed in darkness
for your absence creates it
sorrow my only companion
look for the shining candle
that is my glowing heart
hopeful for your return
Reality Is A Way Of Life
being in this physical realm
trying to achieve an extraordinary existence
not only to survive, but to thrive, and hopefully enjoy
yet what happens when nature dictates the next steps
how do we move forward
how do we address the necessary
and remain sane
these external forces unsettle us, can even unhinge us
consciousness, intellect, and reasonable emotions
grant us the ability to improve our situations
gaining knowledge is our sword to defeat that which can harm us
as we decide how to best cope with the onslaught
living is not an easy task
be aware and have courage
right the wrongs
protect the innocents among us
enjoin your community to protect the whole
and always…
love, love, love, and love some more
Take Me Home
you and i are not so different
we feel scared in unfamiliar places
apprehensive about new people
are we in danger
should we tread carefully
we need good circumstances
and thrive with true friends
we need love and care
someone who watches out for us
our preservation instincts
signal us as necessary
with trust and affection
bonds grow deeper
with goodness shown, we are all enriched
In The Zone
Redux
I never knew
how comfortable
I could feel in my skin
until I heard you
You’re like a muse
I feel like I belong
here
in this moment
with you
your voice
your music
your knowledge
How did I get so lucky
to have stumbled upon you
to finally feel more
to be me
Thank You To Those Who I Love
Inspired by What do you see #275
fiercely protective
you are always there for me
wholly accept me
Many years passed before I understood what loving someone meant to me. Having been shaped by two people (and most likely – no, definitely – the third in my immediate family, too), it took the birth of my first child to understand this most basic lesson I should have been privy to during my formative years. Once understood, I was committed to being the kind of person who also deserved love.
Mates
we’re unique
different in so many ways
but sharing the same values
which brought us close
and to this day
keeps us dear to each other
i’m so glad our lives intertwined
