“WHAT IT MEANS TO BE IN LOVE”

SUFFERING THROUGH THE LOWS TO PEAK,

KNOWING WHAT IT IS LIKE TO LOSE YOUR ENTIRE SPEECH,

THE FEELING OF LIFE ENDING BUT YOUR HEART STILL BEATS,

FALLING ENDLESSLY, HELPLESSLY, LIKE A FALL FROM THE TALLEST BRANCH OFF THE TALLEST TREE,

FLOATING IN A RIVER DOWNSTREAM….YES THAT IS ME,

THAT IS ME – I AM THAT LONELY LEAF,

UNABLE TO COMMUNICATE SO THIS IS HOW I SPEAK,

THE LESSONS I’VE LEARNED I NOW DILIGENTLY TEACH,

LIKE A WHALE OR A DOLPHIN THAT HAS COME TO THE END OF THE WATERS EDGE YES THE BEACH,

KNOWING WHAT IT IS LIKE TO LOSE ALL HOPE AND YOUR FUTURE IS LOOKING BLEAK,

WHEN THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN TOUCH YOUR SOUL AND GATHER YOUR SPIRIT CAN NO LONGER BE REACHED,

WHEN THE WELL IS DRY, INTERNALLY AND EXTERNALLY ALL THINGS TO YOU LOOK AND FEEL EMPTY,

EVEN IF THE GLASS IS FULL AND PLENTY,

THE WEIGHT ON YOUR HEART AND SOUL WHEN YOU LOSE LOVE IS HEFTY,

THEN THE WIND BLOWS….

THE SUN COMES OUT AND IT IS A NEW TOMORROW,

SOMETHING NEW, SOMETHING OLD, IS NOW SOMETHING BORROWED,

NO MATTER HOW HOT, HOW WARM, NOR HOW COLD YOU INSTANTLY KNOW,

THAT THE MOMENT YOU HEAR HER VOICE, RECEIVE A TEXT, OR GET HOME,

SEE HER FACE, FEEL HER GRACE, ALL THINGS ARE WARMED AND NO LONGER COLD, 

YOUR HEART NO LONGER FEELS OLD, 

BRAND NEW WITH A LIFE INSURANCE HOLD, 

YOUR HAPPINESS CANNOT BE TAKEN NOR SOLD, 

YOU KNOW THIS IS THE ONE – THE EXACT MATE OF YOUR SOUL, 

ALL THINGS IN LIFE BEGIN TO UNFOLD, 

TOGETHER YOU PROMISE TO GROW OLD, 

KIDS, A HOUSE, ARGUMENTS THAT YOU WORK THROUGH AND TAKE CONTROL, 

YOUR SPIRIT NEVER FOLDS, 

WHAT IT MEANS TO BE IN LOVE THE STORY OF OUR LIVES  THAT CAN ALWAYS BE TOLD.
