were I free . . . to give the whole of me – the depth of me – I’d love you so that you would never know another woman ever existed perhaps . . . I am nuts that’s my fissures showing my tears and torn flowing . . . but sewn whole I’d never let you go and you would believe . . . in Eden yet, I am where I am by choice I wear these bonds fettered yet . . . free from the guilt of the torn in me s.a.t. Every action generates a force that returns to us in like kind . . . let us choose compassion and love |

Some would rather simply believe in Eve... than in Eden... we've all tasted the apple and been cast out of paradise... but cast out in good company I would say... a very nice piece of work ma'am... indeed |

"and you would believe . . . in Eden" Beautiful line. I was in the place you speak of once upon a time...bonds can be broken..at the right time. "cast me gently into the morning, for the night has been unkind" |

Sometimes giving everything still isn't enough... but how beautifully you write the wish! *S* |

Oh, Susan! This is so very touching. Eden can manifest in your heart N0W ... there is no other way to experience it I think. Because in a relationship we actually get never enough! Beautiful write. Hugs. Margherita |

Thanks Alli - hugs Margherita - yes - Eden must be created within, but it always helps to have someone to share it with - thanks dear James - could do and should do - they are not always the same - sometimes love means sacrificing what one could do for what one should do - thanks for your reply Hugs all - Susan Every action generates a force that returns to us in like kind . . . let us choose compassion and love |
