Daring your heartbeat to breath, to walk with me
Emotional intellect seduced our being
Rendering birth from any conditioned reflex
The opening of possibility, as well as closures
To fragilities could have been our wholeness
Our desires
Embracing the whole of our souls
Remembering our perpetual mistakes
Its foolishness, its finitude, became desires brave

I didn’t want our desolate pass of loneliness
To be the words “I love you”

Each time you drew close, our form became limitless
A beauty opened, defining ascension to the place
Where ordinary beauty became poetic imagination
Liberating our vessel, like faith encompassing failure

Sometime, those possibilities are exchanged
To a desire for truth, if only once in a lifetime
Finding the humility, spiritual connection
An enormous triumph of Death to emerge
Stubbornly whole and alive, approaching true feelings
Letting go of the hand of mischievous sprites

To me,
Our kindness, was beauty recklessly poignant
A secular union and truth of feelings
Offering to us, accurate pleasures of being
Organized only by our unpredictable nature
Filled with inspiration

Our failures...over rode, but I still dared
You to fall in love with me
You couldn't

Dear Lee, you are a person so filled with expression that it does leave me speachless and really unknowing how to react but to say well done my friend.

Sincerely

Perhaps you should have double-dared him!

In any case, I think he should have taken the dare and "risen" in love.

A moving write from your eloquent pen.

~ May love, in whatever form it comes, be your constant companion in life.

Love & Light,
Linda
