Your honesty was the take on the matter the things that strike of villainy remain a brief novella in your history the church got all of your mother's body and her money leaving you broke with nothing left but passion the passion you brought to me refined out of forgiveness the same passion you would share with me in a world of lost art the art of true passion distinguished from all reason making my mysterious search for wholesome love, complete........ the first time I looked at your glowing freckled face I thought the freckles would be rough to the touch but you were so fresh and farm girl beautiful that I just had to try, had to somehow steal a stroke, a brush against your skin and when I finally did it was like touching the smooth open blossom of a lily and then our first kiss your lips were moist and full felt like they had been softened by a Godly sent sweet misty spring rain as you gave yourself to me without any apprehension My insides pushed my heart into my throat the magic that sometimes falls out of heaven captured us for the duration it was then I realized passion without love was against the rules of conscience oh how that kiss has never died now that same kiss speaks your mind with love and familiarity, reminds me of your simple brilliance, accompanied by your angel scent and the treasure of a thousand smiles you always give to me free I gently break away and I have to tell you everything is alright you can take anything you want from me. |

A love as sweet as this, of which you have so tenderly and adoringly 'spoken', is a love which would undoubtedly be forever imprinted upon the minds, hearts, and souls of you both. True-ly beautiful, Eric, Linda |

"it was then I realized passion without love was against the rules of conscience oh how that kiss has never died now that same kiss speaks your mind with love and familiarity, reminds me of your simple brilliance, accompanied by your angel scent and the treasure of a thousand smiles you always give to me free I gently break away and I have to tell you everything is alright" Dear Eric, you sliced a piece of your heart off with this one. "you can take anything you want from me" I know this feeling well. Richy |
