Have you ever fallen in love only to realize, the very next day, the
possibility that you deceived yourself 24 hours before?  Is it such love
that one feels if, the happy fluttering in the stomach is unsuitably
replaced with headaches of longing?  Longing for one’s guarded heart, yes,
but also pains of desire for attention once promised, still deserved.
Smiles are not so much forced as wished for, tears not artificial but
repressed.  The search for love has reached its conclusion, only to begin
again, more turbulently than the initial start.  Eyes of caring seem so
pure but they, translucent with falsification, reflect worry.  Canyons of
happiness smother questions with their solitary natures.  Guilt should not
be stapled to the aorta of love, and yet connected firmly is the emotion to
my heart.  Stars are the only company as the moon retreats.  Total darkness
is never complete so much as it is an illusion.  One must accentuate the
glow of love, no matter how wishful or how true.  Smiles of hope eliminate
shutters of fear.  Twenty-four hours ago, the feelings were not lies, the
same as the answers to the questions now being asked, hold reality.


Is solidarity so horrible that one must reach for another?  The other thus
reaches back, while both stretch away with uncertainty.  Sparks of
electrical retraction startle and scare a timid heart.  Scars of memories,
pain made beautiful, convert into fear.  Although pain is temporary,
memories are less apt to fade.  The similarities that blend into a mesh of
pain are more prevalent than the differences that are too easy to love.



Always look forward, never look back, dreams are much more refreshing than regrets.

Great Stuff! I could go on and on.

This is one of the reasons I look for "0's" because everyone doesn't.

Don't stop what you are doing!

You have so much coming out of yourself so wonderfully clever most writers would not know what to do with it.  The world need people like you.
