LadyInRed · 04-14-2010, 11:16 PM

I do not pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what love is for me; love is knowing all about someone, and still wanting to be with them then any other person, love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including some of the things you might be ashamed of, love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you.

“You've spent your whole life running and running, trying to catch up with something that has never been there for you. And all you've done is go farther and farther away from the precious love that's been waiting for you all the time.”

TROOPER · 04-15-2010, 04:33 AM

A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT

There is something
incredibly beautiful
so, amazingly alive
about her

I can feel
her cool calmness
sparkling across the surface
laminating yet reflecting
this mysteriously pure power
twirling from within

I can hear
the voice of her being
flowing through me
beckoning me to her
like the sweetest of lullabys
soothing my soul

and, I know
if I could dream at all
it would be
about her
as, I try to imagine
the taste of her tears.

TROOPER 04/2010

You know quite well, deep within you, that there is only a single magic, a single power, a single salvation...and that is called loving. Well, then, love your suffering. Do not resist it, do not flee from it. It is your aversion that hurts, nothing else.
~ Hermann Hesse

Why can't we get all the people together in the world that we really like and then just stay together? I guess that wouldn't work. Someone would leave. Someone always leaves. Then we would have to say good-bye. I hate good-byes. I know what I need. I need more hellos. ~ Charles M. Schulz
