You let me think, Allowed me to... Give you everything I had. Emotionally And physically attached To you, I was. You lead me to believe that, Everything I need Was you... And it wasn't. I seemed so happy So alive Than I ever did before... Cause, Our love was so pleasant It felt everyday was my birthday And you were my present At times, I wish I never opened. All the hugs and kisses, The everyday I calls you's, You love me's, I love you too's And the holding me endlessly Was jus me dreaming... Right? I thought you loved me, I thought you cared, I thought you we were forever, But I was wrong. Our love was known to be so pure, I felt so high I was soaring higher than Any cloud ever flown, That everyday I smile... Especially since the birth of our son, My beautiful child. I could've sworn we were perfect But I guess our Time was running out The clock ticked its last tock And time has been called on the love watch. Love definition could have Been us but, It would've been a lie. When did the arguing begin? It was ok to disagree At times, But to get loud and Make it an everyday thing? It was all so sudden, We became complicated. I love you so much but After that last fight, We decided to be seperated. Yes my heart is broken but Like Mary J. Blige said I'll be just fine And whoever said love last forever Was lying-I don't hate you I just could've sworn we were forever |

"Time was running out The clock ticked its last tock And time has been called on the love watch." A powerful read. Enjoyed Janette always seeking joy, adventure and romance and wishing you find the same |

Well stated. It is true that all things end; yet, real love exists because it has existed since before the physical body; passion, lust, infatuation, are but simple reflections, images in a house of mirrors. Those are not real love. They are worth experiencing though even if later there is a painful price. It takes time and accumulated skill to see truth, especially in the worlds of love. For you a child is a gift of a new universe of awareness, joy and pain, anxiety and exhiliration. To know the edges of your ability to feel is to know the possibility of more. The past is another country and we all no longer live there; the future holds for each the promise of a new land, a new life. Having known great love, great passion, great joy simply means you are more likely to recognize other possibilities if you do not barricade your emotions. Welcome to PiP! |
