This is everything I've ever wanted.
This is everything I've wished.
To have found it with you
is something special.
You're the last person I would have picked.
And I don't say that to mean,
simply:
"Who would have though
that me and you
-and you and me-
would ever fall in love?"
I guess some people saw it.
I guess that I was blind,
not only to how you felt for me
but the other way around.
They all just shouted:
"FINALLY!"
When I told them about us.
It really wasn't such a stretch.
It only took three days.
It still surprises me just how much
and easily it came.
I never really opened up
as much as I do now.
It's safer here
than anywhere
We are nothing but ourselves!
We love exactly as we wish to,
express it exactly as we feel...
We are true.
We don't love the way we think we should
or compromise ourselves to suit the other;
We love as we are.
We wear no masks,
hide behind facades,
or lie to each other or ourselves.
We are honest.
We don't hold back,
hesitate or second guess.
We don't doubt.
We don't worry.
We are free.
We are fearless.
We hear each other;
mindful of our needs.
We see each other;
there are no illusions.
We know each other;
we know what to expect.
We have trust.
We have faith.
Most imporantly we have love.
A real love.
A rare love.

The Musings of A Girl Who Learned to Smile Again
Not a moment wasted.
Not an emotion squandered.
Had to know what wrong felt like
to know when it's right.
I'm glad things happened the way they did.
I'm glad I made those mistakes.
I'm glad I had those experiences.
'Cuz it feels like now everything is falling into place.
I'm glad it's happening now instead of sooner.
I'm glad we're doing this as the people we are now.
The girl I was yesterday probably wouldn't have known what a good thing she had.
But the woman I am today,
she knows.
Everything is different
yet the same.
Everything is new
yet familiar.
Old feelings grow deeper.
Old bonds grow stronger.
Suppressed desires now unhinged.

And there she stood.
Shoulders hunched and arms at her side.
And so she stared.
Her and came up and she gingerly, slowly moved her fingers. The second they went over that first bump her hand jumped an inch away from her face and her arm slumped defeatedly down to her side.
Three weeks.
Three weeks she had been using it and nothing! She'd seen all the ads and read the testimonials. Heard how wonderful it was. And yet nothing.
Always nothing!
It was all she ever got.
"I hate you." She breathed. "I hate you. I hate you. I hate you!" Each repetition more venomous than the last. It was barely above a whisper.
She continued to stare, conti
I've given up on everything
Because of you and what you've done.
I'm forever changed;
Completely different person
And you remain the same.
I won't try to deny it;
I've contemplated death.
But don't go and get excited.
I pictured yours, not mine.
If this world was even fair
You'd pay for what you did.
But that's not how things go;
Wickedness reigns and the good ones know.
I'd like to believe in karma;
That what you give is what you get.
If such a force exists,
I can sit here laughing and without a single regret.
