Him n Her In The Clouds
Romance in the clouds
Many people think, at the cusp of a relationship, it will be all hearts and roses.
Sure the beginning for some if not all, is just that.
Hearts aflutter, butterfly stomachs, star gazed eyes, sweaty palms and minty breaths.
Then there are times when you just don’t know which direction
the relationship is going.
You can’t seem to agree on anything, nor can either of you head in the same direction.
Being on the same page is out of the question. Hormones and testosterone bouncing of the walls,
oozing through pores and doing everything but meshing in unity.
And so it goes, except…..
……sometimes things can really get ugly.
Oh, you thought is was bad before? Well just hang on tight because now confusion sets in to a point of
confusion and hands get thrown into the air as if to say…I give up! Not only are you going opposite ways,
but you’re blindly making choices that make no sense other than to get back at the
other or just to be mean….oh yeaaah!!!
It’s just a cluster at this point.
Then something happens that maybe no one expected or hoped it would.
You find yourselves meeting in the middle with compromise.
All is not lost after all.
Love is still in the air…really. What happened after the love at first sight
and after the turmoil is what was always there in the midst of confusion.
The middle, the center, the firm foundation that started it all.
Hearts filled with love.
Relationships are like jobs. You have to work them with every tick of time.
Now…..#whatruworkinon
Love’s piece cannot define that which it exhibits with love’s peace
Love is by the worth it gives as receiving to love
Smoldering hearts heated cores to burn for love
Sensations to ends of nerves endings heightened
Yet be it exuberance, to still the senses to pause, reflections
I called my mom early this morning to wish her a Happy Mother’s Day. She said I was the first to reach her and that it was ok because she had to get up anyway. The times we talk as usual lead to other topics. I’m going to Ohio in July and it will be good to see her.
Like a lot of moms, my mom made sure I knew how to take care of myself, like cooking, cleaning, laundry. Of course as a teenager you’re not into learning those necessities of life. I don’t do too bad these days….thanks to mom.
It is always a treat catching up with my mom. We laugh and talk and she sounds younger than ever. I still get good advice and she is good at listening.
My mom has always been a big part of my life and I will never take that for granted. I often look back on her guidance and know today that raising children is no easy task. Love, gratitude, thankful, appreciation, are just grains of sand in describing how much I appreciate my mom….love you mom!
Words spoken, travel through the air alive
Bringing told truth into your mind
As I speak of my love for you
Can you feel my words as they travel?
Do your eardrums tingle as chimes on a string?
Spreading across the land for all to ear?
Can you feel my words to sweet caress?
As the softness of butterflies flutter?
Tender as untouched dew of morning?
Can you feel my words as kindle to fire?
Does your heart burn as a heated furnace?
Will you embrace this truth that crosses my lips?
I need more than just to be heard
I need you to feel my words
Will you? ~ no~ Can you feel my words?
The question is in your mind
Knowest thou the answer in thy heart?
Over and over the question plays like a song
Lyrics strum across thy heart with sweet melody
You become lost in thought by the beat
Wrapping yourself with your arms
Just the thought of me
Feeling me in the rhythm
Your heart beats the melody
Still you wonder
Why hast thou resisted in your mind?
When you are lost at sea in me
Craving my presence at the dawn of day
To the dreams of your sleep
So many questions, I do understand
Lest the falling is deep, that is love
Understand I do ~ but
What does your heart say?
Hear me from afar as too my heart sings
I too have the strumming of music within
I dance within my being, longing to hold you
I think not of love with my mind
For my heart resonates to the pitch
Earth shattering quakes it beats
Coming forth from my chest
Containment almost impossible
I need your hand to stay my heart
Hear the explosions as they make way
Steady me to comfort I ask
Acknowledge I do what is in my heart
What say you
What does your heart say?
Words need not be spoken
Although your hair I want to be strokin’
Nor even the look of your eyes
Bright shining like stars in the skies
Just the presence of you being near
Is almost enough for me my dear
There are moments when sadness overshadows
When life’s journey renders turbulence
Try as I might alone to my dismayed accomplishment
To conquer the flush of discouragement
This is when I find comfort in you
Your labor of love relinquishes my agony
The resting of your head to mine stills me
My breath of exhale is extinguished by your kiss
And I look into eyes that speak to me~fear not
The rush of my heartbeat slows to your touch
Your peace encompasses any grief lingered
Restoration is come to me
Because I find comfort in you
