The Qualities of Love--Intimacy |

I first met Intimacy several years ago. At first, she seemed shy and very quiet But as I got to know her better, she shared many things with me. We would spend days talking about our lives our dreams our hopes our fears Then late one night, I got a phone call And Intimacy told me the one secret she had not told me in our talks She told me of the child she never had. It was then that I felt that Intimacy and I were one For she had shared with me her essence. Intimacy and I don't talk much anymore. But I still remember everything she taught me. Because of her, my new lover and I are closer than two people could ever be. Sometimes, I wonder where she is And I know that wherever she is, that she's in love. 3-21-91 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- < !signature--> That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl [This message has been edited by Sven (edited 10-22-2000).] |

Unique thoughts...we should consider talking more openly with Intimacy when we have those opportunities - we could learn a lot from her... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?...KRJ |

Very important, to talk with intimacy as often as we can. But what if she won't hear us? Great poem Sandra |
