i cant clutch tight enough
this receiver in my grasp
i cant hold close enough
this bridge that carries your voice
i cant keep near enough
this shell that claims your breath...

this want for you--
          uncontrollable...

tomorrow may change our love
          forever--
yet you drift there with me
    
dont leave me
     dont leave me just yet
i know that you must go
     and i must also--
sleep is calling
     but love isnt listening...

how did love happen
                    to us?
i thought you were strong
     where i was weak
but you gave in to love
when i stepped back
and my last shreds of
     gathered strength
          gave way beneath me...

i cant clutch tight enough
this receiver in my grasp
clinging to silence
pressed hard against my chest...
     steadying breath--
          my lingering need of you
     body aching
sleep embracing...

i cant hold near enough...
     i cant hold near enough
this...
     this
          you...

*sigh* oh gosh...don't you just wish you could crawl through the receiver and become a part of him...*sigh* powerful and expressed perfectly...I know this feeling well. **big hugs**

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

Intense longing here...and a word of advice?
As strong as the temptation is, DO NOT lick the receiver--FULL of germs!

Loved this.

(smiles) Ooohhhhhhh...I know just how you feel, I wish I could just go beyond the voice of the receiver and sweep my girl off her feet and shower her with kisses, this is sooooooo beautiful and filled with such love! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, you are a delight to us all! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

the knee's get weak when love is around, and strength forget that.. lol

As they say, you can't win if you don't bet.

So... a pretty penny on the pretty pony please.

I really liked those lines~
The course of love is never a straight shot...
we're bound to get lost in it!
Enjoyed the urgency and the passion
in your words.
