Breaking the cycle~

Our fathers started.

Leaving us both to wonder

As wanderers of our lost love.

Victims of our own unspoken trauma.

Thanks to our violent Fathers

Silenced by our battered Mothers

Painting facades of the American Dream

Making us all liars.

The what if?

How come us?

Why us?

Does time truly heal?

Does the future bring, possibility?

Hurt peeling us from the inside~

Layered like an onion

Minced and chopped

Emotional Puree.

I finished this before it even started.

A crime, done by my own hands.

I once was the monster

Now sending his deepest apologies.

Sincerely~

I'll always be yours

If you'll have me.

Here to serve you

Sentence me a lifetime~

Taking responsibility of my own crime

"Damn these harmful hands."

Please allow me~

To free you

From my wickedness

Breaking the cycle

You were never

The one to blame.

Knowing you as well as I do

You were always~

The Light

The beacon

Shining through

Our clouded haze.

I pray that God

Has a plan

I'll leave "us"

In His hands

Forever & Always~

I love you

A kiss,
A simple kiss
The simplest—
Two lips
pressed together.

We move closer,
To p r e s s
Our independent*—*
Lips together

Thus—
A simple kiss
Warm and tender.

Compares to no other—
When our lips
Meet one another.

Hand in hand
Fingers intertwined
We hold each other—

Mouths part
Tongues collide—
The world shrinks.

G r o u n d e d
We have no need
To learn to fly.

The taste—
Of each others
Breath,
Submits
True Loves
Unrest.

With composed envy—
Our lips
Feed each others,
Hunger*,*
Passionately.

All our sins are forgiven—
When our lips
Meet again.

Laying down—
Within our arms
We s u r r e n d e r.

Allowing
Our lips
To patrol—
Our bodies

S h i v e r
&
Lose control.

No words needed
Our bodies speak
On what they seek
P a n t i n g, r a v i s h i n g —

True Lovers
(Confirmed)

When warmth
Is desired
From
Each others
N a k e d soul*.*

The universe sinks
Beneath a moonlit sky
As we hold each other—
E m b r a c i n g

Will I see you again?

Would you see me as a different man,
a better man?

A man worthy of your time?

A man worthy of your love?

Would our time apart prove to you my faithfulness?

I’d die a thousand and one deaths to hear you say three words.

“I love you”

Three words I repeat for you daily.

Would you care to speak them in my direction?

Or would they leave your lips empty?

I pray for the day, that I may w h i s p e r them your way.

W h i s p e r your name, w h i s p e r those three words

“I love you”

Kiss you on the c h e e k, down your n e c k,
n i b b l i n g here and there.

Signaling your b o d y, love is n e a r,
tender with all its r e s i l i e n c e

Another soft w h i s p e r in
thy ear

“I missed you my dear”

Hearts pace to the cadence of our breath, heavy with warmth

Eyes lock and never release from the other in view

Lips p r e s s tight

Three words escape b e t w e e n our twisted tongues and p a n t i n g breaths

“I love you”

Three words I hold for y o u within my soul

Call us

“s o u l m a t e s”

Forgiveness is a gift,
A gift that I’ve learned
To receive it, you must earn it.

It allows me to shape my future,
It grants me the ability to have hope.

Hope that you may learn to forgive me
Some day.

It’s taut me how to love,
Especially in the aspect of unconditionally

Something spoke to me while reading recently

A Truth About True Love: you can’t do it twice
It’s never the same as the first go.

We must live with the choices we make
and learn how to forgive each others mistakes

To try and go back in time to change the outcome only leads us a stray or worse.

I have my regrets, due to my poor choices, and the things we’ve both left unsaid.

But honestly,

I wouldn’t change a thing.

Even the worse that’s happened in our marriage.

They have all been lessons, the messiness of learning how to love—

To truly love someone,
someone I made a promise to many years ago.

I wouldn’t change our story.

Our shared history is what has grown
this love of ours into an honorary glory

Though I am willing to change our future,
for better days, surely.

Would you be willing to to take my hand
once more?

Allowing me
to do it properly.

Taking your hand, in mine, gazing into your beautiful eyes.

As I take a knee, to place a ring on thy finger, asking not if you’d be mine,

Rather would you take me,
as your husband once more

I love you

Have you ever missed—

Missed someone so much

So much it hurts—

It hurts deep within

Deep within your core—

Your core aches so bad

So bad that your heart—

Your heart feels like it’s

Like it’s being ripped from—

Ripped from your very chest

The very chest you laid your head on—

Head on all the time

The time we spent complete—

Spent complete when we’re together

We’re together is what I miss—

I miss us together

Us together forever

Together forever and always—

And always loving one another
