…Then show me. Show me, how you Love with your hands. Trace me with your fingertips…kiss me…in your Version of Delicate.

Explore my Body…like you’re charting new territory for the very first time, discovering…unlocking parts of me, only You contain the key for,

Map and memorize me, Mark your territory, stake your claim, I am yours.

While I explore you…all of you, the way you want and need me to. Reimagining, reinventing what it means to make Love.

Let’s take our time getting lost in each other. So long as I’m lost in you, at all.

If it’s not broke, don’t Fix it.

There’s something so Intimate in allowing another to peel back your every layer. Allowing another to see you for who you Truly are, Underneath it All…

One of two things happens, that someone either accepts you, entirely and unflinchingly…unconditionally. Or, the illustration of their illusion dissolves, entirely.

We hope for the Former and Brace for the latter. A tale as Old as Time…but what happens when someone decides to Stay, after seeing you - through every layer they peel back, Until there’s nothing Left to unveil - you, a husk of Bone, the Cage that cradles your Soul?

Love grows here, Trust grows here. Comfort and Knowing.

Beautiful things don’t Beg for attention, Nor does Love. It sits patiently and quietly in spaces where action, movement, words Pause, and breathe…

As if to Say, “I love you for who You are, nothing more, nothing less.”

Nothing More

Nothing Less

You look to your Right and Left before you Cross the street, Not, Up or Down.

There is something to be said about…tip toeing on the Edge of the Confines of Time.

A balanced Act, existing, In between the in between of then and now, Present and Presence, it is all, Relative, really.

Who was it that detested the Idea of having the Best of both Worlds?

Meet me here, for Breakfast after Breakfast and Lunch before Lunch. We’ve got some catching up to do, and I’ve got enough Wiggle room in my itinerary, Set aside, Just, For, (You).

And, what’s there Left to say when Each card has been laid out on the Table?

This, undeniable attraction that we’ve shared for centuries? We find each other in every Lifetime…that was an Oath, a promise that we made to each other Centuries ago.

It’s almost uncanny isn’t it? The Moment when you come to the realization that, we sealed our Fate, in a Kiss, in a Love, that distance nor time could erode.

The immediacy in our familiarity where neither of Us had to question what this is that we share, this we have always embraced with a Knowing and quiet acceptance.

Would you be surprised if I were to admit, that I am not really all that Surprised, at all? How we have always naturally gravitated Toward one another…

Do you remember when we first Met, in this lifetime? “Impact” would be the appropriate Verbiage to use. I remember looking up at you, awaiting for you to either scold or reprimand me, but you, Praised me…

You knew before, I did.

I think about that moment, very frequently, I think about you very frequently. Life is Strange, isn’t it?

P.S. I hope you’ve tripled up on your Salt intake, because there’s no one in the Picture on my end, except You.

pssst, Do you want to know a secret? I love you too, you idiot you.

And they say, Nothing lasts Forever…

And if this is True, then why do Memories feel Infinite…seconds, minutes, even Hours, Suspended in Moments, tiny pockets of time, perfectly preserved to revisit as freely and often as we’d like?

Like folding the corners of Pages in our favorite Books, so we don’t lose Them.

I remember, the Moment when I felt what I could only describe as True Happiness, for the first Time in my Life. And God, am I Lucky to have befriended the Dark,

To have this Wisdom, to discern the difference.
