i am..

"I am the lover's gift;

I am the wedding wreath;

I am the memory of a moment of happiness;

I am the last gift of the living to the dead;

I am a part of joy and a part of sorrow."

~ Khalil Gibran, 1883 - 1931~

"I do not love you as if you were salt-rose,

or topaz,or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.

I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,

in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that never blooms

but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;

thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,

risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.

I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;

so I love you because I know no other way than this:

where I does not exist, nor you,

so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,

so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep."

~ Pablo Neruda, 1904-1973 ~

A Blessed Connection

by Mewz

I watch the sunset,the warm colours engulf me.

They soothe my skin,they taste so sweetly...

They remind me of yesterday when you were near me.

You made the roses bloomjust by walking by.

I looked into your eyesand I swear I was flying.

What brought me down to earth was the sound of you sighing.

You spoke of the plight of our planet,

how you dream of the earth crying.

I sensed your sorrow as you contemplated her dying.

Your empathy just adds to your perfection.

I taste the rainbow every time we kiss.

With you I have a blessed connection.

You, I don't ever want to miss.

When I look at you I see my own reflection.

I love you with my mind, body and soul.

With you I don't need to seek sanction,

for you and I are already whole.

~~~~~

i love you,

even if you're happy with some other one

even if i'm happy with some other guy

i just know i love you even more,

than i could ever guess before..
