Why try to hide it?
The essence of purity is honesty, &
there's no reason to fear being pure.
I can honestly say that I have never felt like this...
I have never loved like this...
I have never desired like this.
Give me the laughter of love.
Console my worries of losing
that which matters to me most.
Can you feel it too?
What, then, of in giving it a chance,
the possibility of losing the present?
Well, if you never try, you should die.
It is not uncommon knowledge that what I seek in this
is shunned by the majority as wrong, asinine,
and not able to have longevity.
What do you say?
I do not cast aside genuine souls as being
strictly a for the moment relationship.
I do, however, find that most of these souls
lack in their being a way to understand
who I am, and what life is about.
The genuine soul is found in the compassion
of the best friend
who knows he's not in the realm of the majority,
and indeed, who understands.
This genuine soul is what I want
as the longevity that shuns
the majority's asinine disbelief...
A soulmate for sharing the purity of love,
the laughter of love,
the love of life,
and of one another.
Will you be the one?



Wings bruised from turning away in such confined space...Not broken...still healable...still feathered with life, somewhere

That was beautiful.  Your feelings actually push through the poem and somewhat create that feeling inside the reader.  Its like a flower inside the heart that blossoms and blooms and just keeps doing so.  That was awesome.  I'm gonna keep this one.

The search goes on! Everything GIS said, he is so inspirational, lol. In a happy mood, yay! I love your writing Purity, always exciting to read, and so thought-provoking.

now there is something strange in the air tonight. i read silhouetted's poem, and then this one. wow, such strong emotions from such pure people. not sure i deserve to be here amongst... but learning a lot.
this was simply beautiful, and like gis, i was drawn into the feeling where by the end, it was me giving the speech... if that final question were ever asked of me as purely as in this, i'd not hesitate in the yes.


i'll always need a friend, one i can defend.
