Here, Now, Forever

The the cutest little thing I've ever known.

I still love this girl from three years ago..

God save my heart

(I used to send her letters, confessing to her of the feelings for her that frightened me to tears.)

We're friends.

We're friends!

Thank GOD we are friends!

For friendships never end...

What better a way to harness this feeling of mine that I bear for her, tender and sweetly careening through eternal caverns of soul started firewood essence of party days past...

This love has a face now..

(I used to send her letters, confessing to her of the feelings for her that frightened me to tears.)

This savage carnal beast has now been tamed..

This love is a friendship..

This love is peace.

Taking comfort in this brings me volumes of strengh.

Waves of it.

Eternal.

Complete.

Nothing dares oppose it.

Nothing.

Friendships never end.

Life is a lonely journey to, and a heavy-hearted departure from three words. I LOVE YOU

Very moving, Eagle. Has she seen this?

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Whoa...thats quite a poetic blending of imagery, analogy, metaphor and expression.
very cool poet sir...
and you are so right...when love can be kept in friendship rather than lost to time...thats always a very cool thing...
Wonderful heart on sleeve declaration...its gift is its sincerety.

In the space between now and then
I lost the fire, lost a friend
and Ill never be the same again
Still, I believe in the innocence
we gave away.
