Could you show me what it feels like to be happily in love?
Can you do it?
For me?
I’d like to know it sometime
and feel it as my own
I think I’ve outgrown torturous love
so I’d like to know another kind

    All There Is To Seeing

    Sometimes, an evening comes to kiss the mesa
    near the Chuska range, blushing in colors
    not possible for any place, but in the sky.

    There is the passion of pink, mixed purple, mixed orange...
    laying down on a bent knee of rock, like a blanket,
    He made perfect, for Her.

    Father Sky believes his Mother Earth. She turns for him.
    She rolls over, and is made as dark as he is,
    like a sigh. The snap in color is his pride.

    It all happens, soundless. Save our watching souls.
    There is nothing, but to feel our ache...
    Our kinship, when we reel.




    driving home, last sunday, we saw an amazing sunset... my 7 year old said that father sky was blushing because mother earth loved him so much it embarassed him. i'm sorry, but that's some seriously intense shit to be coming out the mouth of a 7 year old, wouldn't you say? your question, justam, called that occasion to mind. there is "happily in love"... notice the "happily" comes before the "in love"? ;) it's a long-assed row to hoe if you've been in a tortured state for very long... but it's fun as hell if you've got the right mindset and don't crave instant gratification too much. much luck in your quest. i have my fingers crossed for you :D

    'like he made perfect, for Her.'

    this is real. thank you ms. pn :p
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    i feel some of these sentiments, mr j

    i've been neglecting myself for too long now

    time to be in love,
    without the torture and without the pain.

    thanks for sharing.

    I'm a woman, not a man.
    People just make that mistake because of my user name.

    I really enjoyed this one, good read! :)
    Our love must not be just words, but True Love, which shows itself in action,
    No one needs a smile more than someone who fails to give one,
    After you die...you know how to LIVE!
